A GREEDY python is caught on film devouring a huge calf and then spitting it back out.
Villagers in an Indian jungle collecting firewood came across the gigantic snake in the middle of its meal.

They soon realised this was no ordinary feast with the snake in the process of swallowing a newborn Nilgai – otherwise known as a blue bull.
Nilgai are the largest Asian antelope, usually standing up to 1.5m tall and weighing anything between 240-635lbs.
Unfortunately for this particular baby, pythons are often able to kill and swallow animals that are much larger than themselves.
The non-venomous snakes can sometimes grow to over 30 feet in length.
They use their backward-curving teeth to grasp their prey and restrain it before wrapping a number of coils around it to cause asphyxiation.
Their jaws can then separate in four directions allowing them to swallow large of creatures whole.

However on this occasion, it seems as though the python had taken on more than it could chew as it struggled to swallow the body.
The villagers were able to claw the remains of the corpse from its mouth just as it seemed to spit half of it back out.
