What happens when a python eats a porcupine?
« on: June 28, 2015, 02:22:57 PM »

A week after the first photo was taken,  snake was found dead. It had fallen from  a tree, which ordinarily would not kill a snake. Park rangers opened it up and discovered the porcupine mostly undigested, but its quills had pierced the snakes digestive tract.

The snake went overboard with his bulking routine.

porcupine got right to the point and was way too sharp for the snake. The snake should have chewed things over before trying to consume a porcupine.

This is why Kai avoids pineapples and sticks with grapefruits.
