Nope that is not the name of a cheesy movie on a basic cable channel.
So What happens when a Florida python comes across a 76-pound deer? It swallows it whole, according to this article from SunSentinel.com:
An adult deer was found intact inside a huge Burmese python Thursday, after the snake was captured and killed in the Everglades.
Contractors for the South Florida Water Management District encountered the python on a tree island in western Miami-Dade County, according to the district. It was killed with a shotgun blast.
The find set the record for "big things found inside of pythons" for Florida. I didn't know such things were recorded. It's with good reason, though. Burmese pythons are not native to Florida and will eat almost anything with a heartbeat.
It would be kinda cool to eat a really huge steak and then not have to worry about eating for a year...
