Shocking video: 5-foot alligator found inside Burmese python in Florida

EVERGLADES, Fla. – An entire alligator was found inside a massive Burmese python in Florida – and the video has gone viral on social media.

The clip was shared by geoscientist Rosie Moore on Instagram where it has racked up over 300,000 reactions. She told FOX 35 that the video was taken several months ago but that she just recently posted it online.

“This particular python was roughly 18-foot and had consumed a 5-foot alligator,” Moore wrote on Instagram.

Moore says the python was found in the Florida Everglades but not in a national park. It was euthanized and turned over to the research lab for necropsy and scientific sample collection.

The footage shows several scientists evaluating a large bulge in the python’s stomach before opening it up and getting a better picture of what was inside. The entire alligator is then removed from the python.

I subscribe to Python Cowboy’s youtube channel. It’s a never ending fight against these pythons BUT you make money every time you catch one.

But it’s not as worse as the iguana infestation in Southern FL. It’s just insane and a whole new industry to iguana pest control popped up the last 10 years.

An 18 foot python is quite a bit of “tastes like chicken”.
