The huge python tries to swallow the antelope
A huge python nearly killed itself while trying to swallow an antelope as it got gorged by the dead animal's horn.
The incident filmed inside South Africa's Kruger Park and posted to YouTube on Tuesday shows the distressed python trying to free itself from the horns of the dukier, a small species of antelope native to Sub-Saharan Africa, while coiled around the beast.
However, the serpent managed to get away after a painful struggle, according to Australia's 9news.
Some comments on the Youtube video chastised the tourist who filmed the ordeal saying they caused the impaling by scaring the snake forcing it to retreat quickly.
