I haven't had enough coffee yet to make any witty remarks about this bizarre situation, so I"ll cut and paste a few quotes out of this story.
A four-metre Burmese python recently burst after it apparently tried to swallow a live, two-metre alligator whole ... The snake was found with the gator's hindquarters protruding from its midsection ... (T)he alligator may have clawed at the python's stomach as the snake tried to digest it.
This is the fourth documented case of a gator-python encounter in the Everglades in the last 3 years. Burmese pythons are not native to the area. They have been dumped in the region by people who have reconsidered the wisdom of keeping constrictors as pets.
