Huge 13ft Python is filmed swallowing 4ft Iguana whole (photos)

A group of marine biology students who were visiting a mangrove conservation area in Campeche, Mexico, got the chance to capture one of nature's most awesome feeding ritual close up. They filmed a huge 13ft constrictor swallowing a spiny-tailed Iguana whole. The Iguana can reach up to 4ft which is quite a mouthful for the python. Pythons have to dislocate their jaws when they feed on such large animals in order to fit it all in. More photos after the cut...
