Indian Rock Python
This individual had seemingly swallowed a young Spotted Deer, in any case something large enough to keep it inactive, in this position, one afternoon. I understood that this constrictor needed to wrap itself around a tree, to break down the bones of its prey, to aid with the digestion, but this individual seemed like it had swallowed more than it could crush. However, no sign of the snake the next morning, and hoping it is in a better position to help with its digestion!
