Thank you. I appreciate your suport and to give you heads up, I'll post some cool videos of a cottonmouth vs a Rattlesnake soon.

@2:07. You can literally see one of the snakes deflate, taking its last exhale. That happened to me once at a concert, I was crushed . Once I exhaled, It was impossible to inhale. The most terrifying moment in my life. Luckily, the bands singer stoped the show and told everyone to step back. Unlike other performers, where people have died.@2:50, the 2 Pythons were originally vying for the same rat, then began attacking each other.

A classic example of why people that raise snakes shouldn't feed them together in the same enclosure. I can't believe how careless some people are feeding two snakes together is an open invitation for a bad situation. Great Video !!

From my observation, I would lean more towards the idea of 'accidental cannibalism' for this case. Firstly, pythons are not known to be 'snake eaters'. Cobras and Kingsnakes are but not pythons. The larger python seemed to go for the rat which the smaller python already had in its bite. When the larger python bit down on the rat and begin to swallow it, 2 factors came into play that resulted in the following accidental cannibalism. One, pythons have backfang teeth as opposed frontfangs like those of cobras. Backfangs consist of a row of sharp teeth that curve inwards that makes it almost impossible for a prey to escape once captured. Likewise, it is not easy too for the python to just release the prey from its bite simply by just opening its mouth and release the bite. Backfangs teeths work like fish hooks. Once hook into bait, almost impossible to unhook. Secondly, is the effect of anti-peristalsis that forced the cannibalism act to continued. When we vomit, contents in our stomach is regurgitated out travelling up and out. When that happens there is nothing we can do or control. Example we cannot suppress or stop vomitting halfway. For the python once the prey being swallowed has enter the throat region just after the jaw area anti-peristalsis takes over and begin to push the contents inwards to the stomach. So in goes the rat and automatically followed by the smaller python. This method of feeding commonly practiced by snake keepers is call 'powerfeeding' where additional food or nutrients are fed to a snake by giving it a rat first then as it swallows the rat follow through with whatever food next.

Indeed Animal Planet is not what it used to be. Anyway, I'll upload more wildlife videos this month. Thanks for watching.

Python this , Python that 😂

2 am still awake. I'm in that weird place on KZfaq again

No. Python females lay their eggs and guard them during incubation and leave during the hatching of their young. The new born pythons have nothing to fear from their mother but there are plenty of predators...

This is the first time I have seen a python eat another another python. Amazing.

The snake will regurgitated its prey, defend itself or try to escape...

To be honest, I really don't think the snake wanted to eat the other snake. The bigger one just wanted to eat the mouse what the smaller one had. When snakes eat, they are trying to swallow their food as long as they are not at the end of it and because the smaller one tried to eat that mouse first, it was probably still on that mouse even when it was dead. The bigger python just ate the mouse with python on it.

The other python got suffocated...

Ojatro deserves a nobel prize!

Totally amazing!!

Python 1 : Give me your lunch ! Python 2 : NO !! Python : Okay ! Let's fight !! Python 2 : SURE !!!

in a few weeks or months depending on the snake or weather...

finally something different and a rare stuff to watch.

I seen the view of mouse there.

Snake: "Aye bruh you want a piece of this Rat?" Snake 2: "mmhm yeah hold on lemme come over there and get it"

The flies might have gotten attacked by the smell of the rat the python killed...

Truly amazing. I never knew constrictors would eat each other.

This is wicked. Amazing.

Yes, it will take one week for the python to digest the alligator...

snakes may be scary bit they are the most amazing beings on this earth, look at that patience how it slowly swallows it

considering the body form of the other snake it totally makes sense. by eating its colleague the bigger snake stays in shape quite literally.

😂😂😂😂😂😂 wearing earphones , i was like where is this fly coming from, its like right beside me

So was it a case of mistaken identity or was it indeed genuinely predation behaviour exhibited by the second snake?

Thanks.

i dont know whats worse the snake or the million flies!

Great footage. Crazy stuff.

seems like Moses never picked up his walking stick 😁

So true. The videos on there now are scarcely educational. Thanks for the interesting videos.

Why interrupt the Video in the moment of attack?

It's strange more snakes aren't cannibals. Devouring a smaller snake must be a lot easier than devouring an antelope or something.

The rat in the middle. Rat: OMG OMG IM CLAUSTROPHOBIC!! LET ME GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

this brings a whole new meaning "when 2 becomes 1"

Im no snake expert but this seems like it would be rare. Cannibalism. Amazing video....J

He jus had breakfast lunch and dinner for today damn lol

2 in 1 meal bro! Got to get those Macros! lol

What I would call a consolidation into one. Lol

Lol I kind of want to see 2 snakes eat eachother at the tail until they swallow so much they just go: Well wtf naow.

Although pythons do eat one another, I believe it was the smell of the day that triggered the python in this instance

Wow, I never saw any videos like this on the tv. This is so cool and scary.

SO many spectator flying around

I don't think I've ever heard of same-species cannibalism among snakes before. Has this been documented anywhere else, or is this the first recorded instance of this behavior?

Two snakes looking like a pretzel

This was ideal meal - exactly the size and shape the snake needed. :)

What great show for me. In the other way whatta cannibalism ooww man!

Python: hmm why is the mouse so long to swallow?..where's my buddy?...

Hi Ojatro, Pythons looks so lazy from their physical appearance, but it seems from the videos that they are actually not so slow. Do you have any video clip that shows the fastness of the pythons? Or can you make one or point to one that shows how fast and quick the Pythons can be. Thanks a lot for your work.

Awesome and a bit scary video! Can I ask question? Why flyes are sitting on them?

The part that bothers me is all the flies, I hate bugs xD

can't believe you missed the best part...the effing strike!

You caught him taking his last breath. Wow.

Great to watch. What kind of snakes

Looks like an MMA submission by RNC!

Snakes in general are difficult to film feeding...

U couldn't tell which was which! 😕

A few weeks or even months.

Where are you filming this, I notice that in all your videos there is an absurd amount of flies everywhere.

That python got a taste of its own medicine

Honestly, I just kept on echoing Johnny's Depp line in 'Charlie and the chocolate factory', where Wonka talks about cannabalism

Python vs Python Victor: Python

2 for 1 meal to save precious time!! lol

lol cannibalism

استمررررررر

TRULY AMAZING!! Thank you.

can you say Cannibalism lol

Snake 2.0 contains Snake 1.0, and even comes with a bonus mouse...

VERY NICE..LOVE IT

Haha, he just got a dose of his own medicine.

that snake was like damn this is a longest rat i ever swallow this time cause it usually take me 20 minute to eat a rat and now it's taking me 5 hrs something is wrong but i don't care cause at the end i will be full.. lol

This man purposefully makes animals fight! Believe me guys

what if it gets full halfway through it?

Me encanta ver cómo se comen ellos mismos así está bien

I kept on thinking the snake was biting itself :P

I would really love to see that! ^^

Looks like me after my third plate in a buffet

how long before it has to eat again after that ???

What boggles my mind is how the snake fits all that, I mean it's practically the same size,; is a snakes stomach the entire inside?

This is the first video of python cannibalism right?

Let’s be honest this wasn’t recommend it to you. You’ve searched it

The larger Python was confused by the smell of the rat I think. I don't think it intended to eat the other one.

It's like a spaghetti eating another spaghetti

I like how it ate the other snake instead of the rat it was fighting over

need water sir?? lol

How long till he will need to feed again?

All of that effort for a rat

started as a french kiss

Aren't those like lizards? lol

The strongest snake will win the battle and most of the time the longer - the stronger...

When both of them were strangling - it looked a lot like the headphone cables in the morning… I never knew one snake can strangle another snake to death

Just like a BJJ fight 🔥

how to fusion

A starter followed by the main course.....I wonder what was for pudding? 😅

apik tenan

It’s like putting an angry sausage inside another angry sausage

Can it survive this? I think they had a similar lenght.

How rude of that bigger python to not only interrupt the smaller python's meal, but to squeeze it to death and eat its meal too. Jeez...

looks like that smaller python already had something in its stomach towards the end.
