I always thought that the snakes killed their prey before eating--perhaps to avoid this type of occurence. Live critters moving around in a belly can't feel too good!
To: ChristianDefender
"The incident has heightened biologists' fears that the nonnative snakes could threaten a host of other animal species in the Everglades."This statement doesn't make sense. I see one very dead snake. A snake that bursts while eating alligators is no threat to alligators.
I sure wouldn't want to come across one in the swamp, but even if the gator is dead, there's a lot more gators in the everglades than there are non native snakes.

Live critters moving around in a belly can't feel too good! You get used to it.

The back legs of alligators can keep moving even after they're dead. The claws on its back feet could have very easily punctured the snake's belly and totally ripped it a new one.

Reminds me of the old Monty Python skit..."I can't eat another bite."
There are a ton of these things in Florida. I lived down in crazyland for 10 years - 80's and 90's - and it was fairly common for pythons to take refuge under houses and feast on local dogs. Heck, I tried to run over a 15 footer one night on the Golden Gate Parkway outside of Naples. Scary looking critters....but probably taste great

Many non-native species have been imported in south Florida. Most palm trees are imported. There are several lizards, frogs and toads that have hitched rides from the Caribbean islands and are now prolific in the area.
And now the Nile monitor lizard is showing up in peoples back yards.
