Non-medical, but bizarre: Python explodes after eating alligator.
“A meeting between two of the largest and fiercest predators in the Everglades — a Burmese python and an American alligator — ended in a scene as rare as it was bizarre.
The 13-foot-snake and six-foot gator both wound up dead, locked so gruesomely it is hard to make heads, tails or any other body part of either creature.
When the carcasses were found last week in an isolated marsh in Everglades National Park, the gator’s tail and hind legs protruded from the ruptured gut of a python — which had swallowed it whole.” (image via Miami Herald)
