Snakes predation - Spalea - 09-30-2020
Snakes, venomous or not are fascinating animals, exclusively all predators.
Predation between stealthy animals, although spectacular but nevertheless able to be quite unnoticed because quick and noiselessly.
Do you recognize this snake ?

Pampas foxes as prey of yellow anacondas
Abstract
Carnivore predation by other predators is rarely observed in nature. We describe here two predation events and report a third one of adult pampas foxes by yellow anacondas in Corrientes province, Northeast of Argentina.

Figure 2. While harassed by one of the pampas foxes, the boa begins to place itself in order to swallow the captured fox, starting by its head.

Figure 3. The yellow anaconda has already swallowed half the fox. Notice the jaws and body distension of the snake to swallow the prey.

Figure 4. The yellow anaconda leaves the capture place after swallowing the fox completely. The swelling in the central part of the snake body is due to the fox it has eaten.

@Spalea I think it could be a rat snake.
