A python camouflaged itself on a tree branch, grabbed a pigeon , and strangled it to death painfully at the Madikwe Game Reserve.
Amateur photographer Marc Lindsay-Rea was visiting the Madikwe Game Reserve when he witnessed the brutal hunt of a python. As a species that lives and hunts mainly on the ground, the sight of the python hunting in a tree is very impressive
Before that, the python clung to a tree branch, camouflaged itself to look like a tree branch to stalk its unfortunate prey. The unfortunate pigeon found a place to perch on the tree branch and had to endure the painful strangulation of the predator
The python uses its whole body to squeeze, causing its prey to slowly suffocate
The bird’s feathers fell to the ground as it was swallowed by the python.
Under the blue sky, the bloody hunting scene of the python appears under the artistic camera lens
The python appears satisfied after feasting on its unfortunate prey. The haunting image shows feathers still clinging to the predator’s lips.
