In a toe-curling moment, a massive python swallowed an entire antelope in an Indian village.

In the video, the giant snake, estimated to be up to 12-foot-long, can be seen steadily stretching its mouth to devour the prey. But moments later, the python regurgitates its kill because it seemingly turns out to be too big a hunt.

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.
