    ELECTRIC FENCE


    Seems a sheep farmer was puzzled about the disappearance of some sheep on his farm. After a few weeks the farmer decided to put up an electric fence.

    About a week later, this is what he found!

    Now, I know we've all heard of people being eaten by snakes & I bet most of us have said, 'If a snake tried to eat me, I'd blah, blah, blah & get away.'

    Well, this is a Python & they're extremely aggressive & have a few teeth that they use to hold their prey while they wrap around them & then constrict.
    Could you get away if this one bit you & held on with it's
    'few teeth?'

    Damn!

    For a moment there, I thought the sheep were eating pythons.

    Damn!

    I'm already feeling nauseous today, but those pics make me feel like it even more. Maybe it's because I hate snakes.

    I was bit by a Retic Python once..he was prob 7' and he didnt want to let go... I dont think anyone is getting away from a Pythons grip until the python wants to let go.

    I love snakes.

    I watched a show once where they showed that a constrictor can feel the heartbeat of its prey while wrapped around it and puts extreme pressure on the heart to kill the animal very quickly. Besides suffocation, the prey is killed by stopping the heart directly as well.

    Was the snake killed on the fence?
