Huge Python in FL Had Eaten a Deer

October 29, 2011

You know how they know that? Because when they caught it, the snake said, “D’oh!”

Officials in the Florida Everglades have captured and killed a 16-foot-long Burmese python that had just eaten an adult deer.

Scott Hardin, exotic species coordinator for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, said workers found the snake on Thursday. The reptile was one of the largest ever found in South Florida.

Hardin said the python had recently consumed a 76-pound female deer that had died.

Too bad they didn’t get video of the snake capturing and constricting and killing the cute little deer. For the kids. I mean it’s almost Halloween!

P.S. Does this look like Burma, Mr. Burmese python? Go home!
