00:03 Which animal can open its mouth up to 130 degrees
00:22 and swallow their prey four times larger than themselves?
00:25 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:30 Have you guessed which animal this is?
00:31 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:35 Well, the animal we want to talk about today is the python.
00:40 It looks small, but the python has a weapon that can swallow
00:44 huger prey deliciously.
00:46 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:49 And without making you wait any longer,
00:57 let us watch the python's large animal attacks and swallows
01:02 to see how terrible they truly are.
01:04 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:08 A close-up of a python snake attacking and swallowing
01:12 the large animals.
01:13 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:17 Pythons are a family of non-venomous snakes
01:21 found in Africa, Asia, and Australia.
01:25 They are mostly ambush predators,
01:27 as they often lie motionless in one position,
01:31 waiting for the prey to pass and then to attack by surprise.
01:36 Let us see how the python will enjoy its prey.
01:39 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:43 The python swallows a samba deer.
01:49 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:53 A samba deer was entangled by a python,
01:55 squeezed as this deer was completely defeated.
01:59 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:03 It is not that the act of biting the prey that this python
02:10 enjoys the prey in a simpler way, and that is swallowing it.
02:15 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:19 It opens its mouth wide and swallows its prey slowly.
02:23 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:26 As the python's jaws are not attached to the skull,
02:32 but to ligaments, as they are very flexible so that they
02:36 can open as wide as possible.
02:38 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:41 Python's salivary glands secrete salivary glands
02:45 to help the prey go into the throat faster and smoother.
02:49 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:53 And the python ribs are also supportive.
02:58 With a larger prey like a samba deer,
03:01 the python uses bones in the head and the jaw
03:05 to push the prey down to the abdomen.
03:08 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:12 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:15 And after swallowing the prey whole,
03:27 the next step is to push the prey along the digestive tracts
03:31 as the stomach fluid helps the snake break down the tissues.
03:35 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:39 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:42 And very quickly, the samba deer was in the super belly
03:48 of this python.
03:49 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:52 The giant python eats the lord crocodile.
03:59 [MUSIC PLAYING]
04:03 Pythons usually like to live in places with high humidity
04:07 and swamps where they can live and forage.
04:11 However, in this environment, crocodiles
04:15 are considered cold-blooded animals and other killers
04:19 that make many animals tremble.
04:22 There have been many clashes between pythons and crocodiles.
04:27 And will the crocodile be able to defeat the python
04:30 with his powerful bite?
04:33 Oh, no.
04:35 A crocodile was in a python's mouth.
04:38 And perhaps because this python was quite large,
04:42 the crocodile was defeated.
04:43 [MUSIC PLAYING]
04:46 Using its jaw muscles, the python slowly swallowed the prey
04:52 into its stomach as the python ribs also
04:55 supported enthusiastically.
05:00 Moving the food from the pharynx down to the throat
05:03 and straight into the skin of the abdomen.
05:06 [MUSIC PLAYING]
05:08 Not only the jawbone, but the bones in the mouth
05:11 are also connected by elastic ligaments, which
05:15 can be extended to both sides.
05:19 And because of that, the python's mouth
05:21 can not only open very wide, but also
05:24 open both right and left sides without limitation.
05:28 [MUSIC PLAYING]
05:31 Yes, after just a few minutes, the crocodile
05:36 was swallowed by the python.
05:37 [MUSIC PLAYING]
05:40 Pythons can digest prey in a few hours for smaller prey.
05:47 And sometimes, it can take weeks to decompose
05:50 all of the larger prey.
05:51 [MUSIC PLAYING]
05:55 [MUSIC PLAYING]
05:58 The python eats a deer fawn.
06:05 Usually, the prey is defeated by wrapping many circles
06:09 around the victim's body and squeezing it.
06:12 And with extremely strong muscles,
06:14 the python will squeeze its prey until it suffocates
06:18 or has cardiac arrest and death.
06:22 This video captures a scene of a python hugging a deer fawn
06:27 as it begins to eat its prey slowly,
06:30 seeing her child being attacked and eaten by the mother deer.
06:35 She could not do anything, as she could only
06:38 watch her child being swallowed by a python.
06:44 The python attacks an impala.
06:46 [MUSIC PLAYING]
06:49 This time, the baby impala was both targeted
06:53 by a python and a hyena as they started to approach the target.
07:03 But the python was faster, as it immediately attacks
07:07 by wrapping its prey tightly.
07:08 [MUSIC PLAYING]
07:11 And because of its greedy nature and specializes
07:17 in stealing the prey of other predators,
07:19 even though the python is squeezing its prey,
07:23 the hyena still dares to rush forward and snatch
07:27 the impala away.
07:29 Perhaps realizing the danger of the hyenas,
07:33 the python let go of its prey and quickly climbed the tree.
07:38 So the hyena successfully snatched the bait away.
07:42 And although it didn't take any effort,
07:44 it still got a delicious meal.
07:47 [MUSIC PLAYING]
