A python was filmed live as it slowly consumed a possum in the driveway of a Queensland home on Thursday, February 9, while a snake catcher narrated the grisly process. Brisbane snake catcher Lana Field observed the gradual disappearance of the possum, saying the reptile, a regular coastal carpet python, had killed it in a tree before starting on it for breakfast. “As you can see it’s already got the front shoulders down and we’re already half-way down the body, just having a little rest,” Field said. The video ended not long after the possum’s tail disappeared and Field gave it some time to digest before moving it out of harm’s way, adding the resting time would avoid “regurgitation.”
