Jeez, and I thought I eat a lot...

Whenever I'm down, nature always finds a way to bring me back up. Today, it has brought me this story.

This is a picture of the gruesome aftermath of a bitter fight in the Florida swamps between a the non-native burmese python and a Florida alligator. Apparently, the python tried to swallow the alligator whole but it is believed that the alligator had enough fight in it after being consumed to puncture and explode the python's stomach, leaving this delicious aftermath. There is no snake head because it's missing...go figure.
