Eaten Alive 3

Описание

Red Tail Boa eats small rat pups alive without constriction.This is actually the preferred method of consuming prey when the prey item is not a threat.

Eating without constricting is rare and usually only happens when a snake is feeding on prey that is difficult to constrict like another snake or newly born rodents or birds.

Feeding without constricting also allows the snake to conserve its energy for more important tasks , like digesting the meal, or slithering away from other predators.
