Re: Python Spits Out a Dog
Hate to break it to ya, but what that python spits out is not a dog. The anatomy is all wrong. The hind legs are very long in cimparison to the forelegs, the small narrow chest, the large rounded abdomen, and the small rounded head with a sharply pointed nose indicate it's NOT a dog. It appears to be more likely a civet or an otter, maybe even a mongoose. Possibly a coypu (an invasive rodent species). Good news for the dog lovers I guess. Poor snake though, but at least they didn't kill it (I hope). |

Re: Python Spits Out a Dog
Looking at the very large hind legs, thick/long tail, and short-but-stocky front legs, I'm thinking this former-meal could be a wallaby (or similar creature.) It's definitely not a dog.

Re: Python Spits Out a Dog
It's a reticulated python which are native to Asia so a wallaby seems unlikely. I admit it really looks like one, and I was trying to see if there were any similar marsupials in Asia, but the closest I got was the otter theory.

Re: Python Spits Out a Dog
Both pythons and wallabies are both found in New Guinea, so it is possible that a python scarfed up a wallaby.  |
