Default Huge Python fried in electirc fence

Took a few shots of an african rock python we came across at a freinds farm.
It was trying to cross the game fence, which is electrified. In order to get shocked the circuit needs to be completed, thats why it got through the first section unscathed. When it crawled through and touched the second fence it obviously started getting shocked. It turned around to bite the fence, got caught and fried itself....

I bet you didn't realise how hectic the teeth are on a python. Looks like it had eaten recently, most probably a small buck or deer.

Not to be a dick and doubt that you took the pics, but I've seen those pics on numerous sites now.

Either way, HOLY CRAP! :shock:
