snake coughs up hippo

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
OMG
I'm speachless
 
Wonder how many children that thing has eaten? That's messed up.
 
Wow!
 
Yeah, it's an oldish clip, and it's a bit of a internet urban myth.
I think the story is it's an anaconda that was antagonised and abused with oars to make it regurgitate it's meal (as they do in stress situations like this), which is no more a hippo than I am. Think it's a capybara or a tapir or something, can't remember which. It's very very sad, and is not good for the snake at all.
 
That is a baby hippo!! you are right that they abused it, i saw the whole clip on this and they did show the baby far more better than the clip we just saw, it sucks, but that is what they do in the wild, i am just surprised that the mother hippo didn't kill it. Not even crocs will try to get a baby hippo!!!!

look at the head at the end of the clip, also im thinking that hoppos have 4 toes not 3 like in the vid! at the most that is a hippo/tapir Hybrid :screwy:
