This is the stomach-churning moment a massive python swallows an antelope – before regurgitating the entire creature. The giant snake, estimated to be up to 12-foot-long, can be seen steadily stretched its mouth to devour its much larger prey in the village of Gorakhpur, in Northern India.

But moments later, the python spewed out its kill because the ‘hunt was too big’.

The antelope’s death captured the attention of villagers, with a crowd of onlookers quickly gathering around to watch the python.

It was still unclear, though, how the python had managed to capture the antelope.

According to the reports, Sushil Kumar, 28, who witnessed the entire episode, said:

“I was walking around my house and I walked a bit further, I heard noises. The moment I rushed towards the spot, I saw a huge python was regurgitating an animal.

“It was one of the most spectacular moments I’ve ever witnessed as people told me it was an antelope.”

The footage was reportedly caught on 22^nd August in Gorakhpur in northern India. A crowd of onlookers can be seen and heard in the video, with some poking the antelope with a stick.
