a

In Moremi National Park, Botswana, an African rock python takes just 45 minutes to devour an entire impala. Because of the python’s extremely flexible jaw, it was able to swallow the whole of the young impala in just 45 minutes. Fred Von Winckelmann, from the Netherlands was on a game drive and he was able to capture the amazing footage of the feeding technique.
Mr Von Winckelmann said, ‘Seeing an African rock python swallowing a young impala is a once-in-a-lifetime sighting.The snake was calmly sw@llowing his meal without giving us any attention, so I was allowed to go belly-down to get eye-level photos of the reptile. We arrived when the snake was starting to dislocate its jaws around the antelope’s waist and in 45 minutes it sw@llowed the last hooves. That was when we let the python digest it in peace because they are so vulnerable when doing so.
