A gigantic python snake in Florida ate a 76-pound adult deer. The 16 foot long Burmese python was one of the largest pythons discovered to date in the sunshine state.
According to Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission’s exotic species coordinator Scott Hardin, if these huge snakes aren’t killed, they could migrate northward. A government sanctioned shotgun blast stopped this snake from its potential journey to Atlanta or the Carolinas.
And just how any inches around did the beast’s belly have to measure in order to covert a 76 pound Bambi into breakfast? 44 inches.
Oh, and what is the average weight of a 11-year old boy in America: 76 pounds….something to think about.
One minute, really cool video: http://www.cleantv.com/web/ProgramDetail.aspx?pid=407
haaaaaa “JJ”. That has a nice ring to it.
RUH-ROH, HE LIVES
you're on "see time" LOL
I noticed.
More like sea time........
Or is that tea time?
Oh no.... I’m sooo sorry, that is terrible. I hope you’re not in pain anymore :((((
Mine’s about four minutes off too!
still hurting some; not sure if it’s from the disc they didn’t operate on (I don’t think so), or just remaining from where they did. But, it’s soooooo much better I am not complaining, just need to take things easy on my neck (can’t sit too long at desk without stretching etc.)
Shouldn't have let women into the workforce! Then, we could be at home, eating bon-bons and resting our backs...
Mine is off too
oh no, well, any time you drop off, I understand COMPLETELY. It’s so bad how many of us have similar issues around here... And remember SV?
Now it’s 6 minutes fast on FR.... I think....
so true
JJ beating time.
Yes; did something happen to her too??
LOL
Did you get a description, was it an Ava vehicle, and the driver grey-looking?
He’s been trying to run me down, but never gets over from Land of Enchantment. He’s too afraid of the fleeing IAs on I-10.
haaaaaaaaaaa
I just remember from so many years ago that she had one of those horror stories so many of us do... had to give up being an engineer b/c of the carpal tunnel, had to use the voice synthesizer instead of typing!
No, I took off after him, no license plate; it happened up in Barstow. I could never catch him (hit and run jerk).
aw, poor thing. :(
Awww, how cute! I always liked those grouchy old men in the opera house balcony.
Totally :(((
That is terrible. Figures, Barstow.... the area of Manson-followers....
Trying? More like playing fun.
If'n I realy tried to run both the snake and turnip down at the same , it would make great ratatouille.......
*Ponders what wine to select*
it is? ew
Way too funny, might get me banned.
:-)
Or, at least, used to be 20 and 20+ years ago... when I lived in Death Valley.... that whole area south to JT was known for it (you know, they caught Manson just outside of park boundaries... the cupboard was still there then, but I heard it’s been stolen since). Creepy that whole area... and then there’s all the nuke testing....
A dry red, preferably, Pinot Noir or a Cab
LOL
*pouting*
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
creepy is exactly what I was thinking when I was posting but refrained from saying. perfect word for there
Maybe we could build a Gitmo (Barsto) for sharks out there...
Whites might be better here (need something a bit lighter).
;-)
there’s lots of land for that out there; no one would ever find him. heheee
then the running over of snakes and turnips is off the table !!
ohhhhhhhh, *rubbing hands together, yeeehawwwww*
How insensitive! Shark Sensitivity Training SKOOOL needed.
I bet the shark just comes up to my chin (*pointing chin leve*l) and the snake could pounce faster....
snakeses don’t have hands. Must be scales you’ll be rubbing together......rofl!!
totally!!
whoops!! Snake got too excited....
we could also experiment with that new smallpox vaccine — the one BO doesn’t know works but he’s going to give his good buddies $433 million anyway... We could try it on JJ.
Ha, take that!
I don’t blame you; finally! he’s in our grasp and ‘restriction’ capabilities. lol!!
lmao! so true. Let the experiments begin!!
wow; I’m shaking in my turnips
Like 128 mph, etc.
:-)
yuk yuk (*groan*)
