Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

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.

Indian rock pythons prey on langur monkeys

A python coils around and constricts a struggling langur in Madhya Pradesh' Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve. Enjoy the grain of this old image that we unearthed from Sanctuary's beloved coffee-table book - The Bandhavgarh Inheritance. .

@Spalea I think it could be a rat snake.
