A fascinating series of pictures have captured a python snake eating a king parrot in one bite.

The images, taken in Agnes Waters, Queensland, show how the snake constricts and eats its prey.

The pictures were shared by Stuart McKenzie, also known as "The Snake Catcher", a man from Queensland who offers to remove and relocate snakes or reptiles.


He shares pictures and advice about snakes and other reptiles on his Facebook page and also answers people's questions.

On the picture of the carpet python eating the king parrot, one person asks: "How does the bird die? Is it being eaten alive? Or does the snake bite and kill them first?"
In pictures: venomous snakes
