A python(巨蟒)sits on a road after swallowing a pregnant ewe(母羊)in the village of Kampung Jabor, about 200km east of Kuala Lumpur. The six-metre reptile weighing 90kg was too laden(负载的)to move, making it easy for firemen to capture it.
Pythons grab their prey(猎物)with their teeth, then quickly wrap coils(盘绕)of their bodies around the prey and squeeze. They don’t actually crush the prey and break its bones, though. Instead, they squeeze tightly so that the prey animal can’t breath and it suffocates(窒息). The snake then begins the leisurely(从容不迫地)process of unhinging(取下)its jaw and swallowing the prey whole, usually head first. This is accomplished with rhythmic muscular contractions that pull the prey down the snake’s throat and into its stomach.
Note:
一条长达6米的巨蟒趴在吉隆坡的马路上无法动弹,因为它刚刚吞下一头怀孕的母羊。
蟒蛇捕获到猎物后会用身体缠住猎物,使它们窒息而死,然后整个吞下,一般从头部开始,最后利用收缩肌将猎物顶入胃中。
