This incredible footage shows the horrific moment
a live goat is swallowed whole by a massive 10ft
python as crowds of people were drawn to watch
the digestive feat.
It has sparked fears among locals in the village
of Garkhuta in West Bengal, India that if a python
could catch a goat it could easily kill a man or
child.
Among the onlookers was photographer Roni
Choudhury, who was walking nearby the
Sonakhali Reserve Forest when he spotted the
giant snake stretching its mouth around the
goat's lifeless body.
Devoured: In a dramatic moment caught on
camera the 10ft python wraps its jaws around a
fully grown goat after capturing the animal near
the village of Garkhuta in West Bengal, India. The
domestic goat's death captured the attention of
villagers
'The moment I rushed towards the spot, I saw a
huge python was eating the goat,' Mr Choudhury
said. 'It was one of the most spectacular
moments I've ever witnessed.'
The domestic goat's death captured the attention
of villagers, with a crowd of onlookers quickly
gathering around to watch the feast unfold.
Mr Choudhury added: 'The python would be
around 9-10 feet long and it looked young.
'I was there for more than an hour and later I
heard from the villagers that the python finished
the goat in around four hours.'
It remained unclear quite how the giant snake
nabbed the goat in the first place, but
eyewitnesses said the python continued devouring
its prey despite the crowd's presence.
A villager said: 'It did not seem to be bothered.
The python left for the forest after he finished
swallowing the goat.
