Today Paul and I were walking in my back yard when we stumbled upon a very large snake with a FULL belly. I was trying to figure out where it's head was when I realized why I was confused. It was a King snake eating another King snake. I have a picture below. You can kind of see the marking on the snake. Tell me if I am wrong, but I do believe that is a King snake.
It was really cool to see that. Unfortunately we made the snake nervous and it "lost" it's lunch. The really weird thing is that the snake had about 3/4 of the other snake eaten. Well when the snake "lost" it's lunch the other snake was still MOVING. Yeah, that's right. It was actually still moving around. I don't know how it stayed alive in the belly. I don't understand it, I just accept it. I hope that the other snake went back later on to eat it's prey (again).
This is the snake that was eating the other snake. Notice how big around it is.
The unlucky one.

Is that natural? I knew King Snakes ate other snakes, but don't they have rules on eating their own kind? Really makes me say hmmm...
