QUEENSLAND, Mar 3: No one would have thought a crocodile versus a snake would be a fair fight, but when an Australian crocodile came across a 10 ft. python in a lake in Queensland, there was only one clear winner.
Incredibly, the snake coiled around the crocodile and squeezed the giant reptile to death, before dragging it to land. It then proceeded to swallow the croc whole, taking just 15 short minutes to do so.
Local author Tiffany Corlis witnessed the whole jaw-dropping even and was left in awe.
“It was amazing,” she said. “We saw the snake fighting with the crocodile.
It would roll the crocodile around to get a better grip, and coil its body around the crocodile’s legs to hold it tight.”
“The fight began in the water. The crocodile was trying to hold its head out of the water at one time, and the snake was constricting it. After the crocodile had died, the snake uncoiled itself, came around to the front, and started to eat the crocodile, face first, she said.
