Villagers Killed Gigantic Snake Which They Thought Had Swallowed A Cow(photos).
Late in the afternoon some people who murdered an immense snake in the wake of suspecting it with having eaten a calf in view of its swollen stomach found it was pregnant with many eggs.
The incident happened in Nigeria where local media said the snake had been killed over accusations it had been feasting on farmers’ livestock.
However as these images show, the snake was not overweight because of its last meal, it was actually pregnant.

After being cut open, dozens of eggs were found and removed by locals who regard them as a rare delicacy.
Although it was not clear what sort of snake it was, many snakes can produce up to 100 eggs at a time.
Online commentators seem to have little sympathy with the snake, with most pointing out that it was a good thing that around a hundred baby snakes would no longer be born.
Judging by the size of the snake, which appears to be almost a foot wide and several metres long, it looks like an anaconda.
But with the species of anaconda restricted to South America, it is likely the pictured snake is an African rock python.
here is the video.
Investigations & research are still going on in order to know if similar snakes are still crawling around in the area of the scene.
