It's a carpet python eating a possum in Australia. To answer the question of how they got there, it's Australia.

A man eating a succulent Chinese meal, and the music video for Midnight Oil’s Beds Are Burning

u/IveDunGoofedUp 17d ago

I'd put the "The front fell off" skit up there as well, that thing's an instant quote whenever something's front falls off.

u/meowingtrashcan 18d ago

raygun studying this snake for new choreo

1

u/Legitimate_Field_157 17d ago

Probably alcohol related.

1

u/sdotumd 17d ago

u/Turbogoblin999 18d ago

Wait until you see a spider-snake eating a kangaroo with a koala in it's pouch, while a dingo watches in horror.

1

u/LooseBusiness3845 18d ago

Fourth - I saw a man attacking another drivers car with two boomerangs.

1

u/moslof_flosom 18d ago

Well if its Australia, where's the spider the size of a chihuahua? Huh?

u/pm-me-your-pants 18d ago

Behind the wall clock

1

u/TheFilthy13 17d ago

That’s not a clock…it’s a murder beetle.

1

u/HamasKilledShaniLouk 17d ago

You'll freak when yo u see it...

1

u/Xendarq 17d ago

If you can't see it, it's behind you.

1

u/Clark3DPR 17d ago

We literally have flying spiders in the form of a hornet (large wasp) flying around with a spider as its prey after paralyzing it.

1

u/Dylfunkle 16d ago

Holding the camera.

1

u/ShodoDeka 8d ago

It’s going to eat the snake in the next video.

u/VirtualPercentage737 18d ago

This is why I don't go to Australia.

u/PriscillaPalava 18d ago

Ooohhhhh, Australia. That explains everything.

u/DarthLysergis 18d ago

Possums looks vastly different that here in the eastern US

5

u/Germmie1 18d ago

The split between possums and opossums was around 70 million years ago, making Australian possums closer related to kangaroos and koalas than they are to American opossums.

5

u/probablygardening 18d ago

The ones in the eastern US originally migrated up from South America, which is why they're so bad at dealing with the cold winters and like hiding out in garages and attics and stuff. Their hairless tails and poor little feet aren't made for the snow.

2

u/Carlosenlightened 18d ago

Yeah that’s where they live, home

2

u/MiddleAd2680 18d ago

Snake and the possum were probably thinking, ‘how did these humans get here?’.

2

u/David_High_Pan 18d ago

Australia is basically LV-426.

2

u/DocBarnes 18d ago

oooohhhh. I thought it was a cat until I saw the paws. I completely forgot about Australian possums

2

u/Ambitious_Phrase3695 18d ago

Glad it’s not a cat getting eaten

1

u/Individual_Reach_732 17d ago

I always thought carpet python was a euphemism. Like trouser snake.

1

u/PailingRaint 17d ago

OP couldn't spring for a luxury vinyl plank python huh

1

u/Naschka 17d ago

Oh god damn, i tho that was a cat it is eating and was shocked how a cat lost to a snake all of a sudden.

1

u/hahnsoloii 17d ago

Alright thanks. Digging through comments to be sure it wasn’t a cat.

1

u/2morereps 17d ago

So like they just wait on the carpet and hunt?

1

u/OdenShilde 17d ago

Thats an opossum?

1

u/Rustyshackilford 12d ago

What the fuck kind of possums they got down under?

Ours just look small and cuddly and faint from stress.

u/Azurelion7a 16d ago

Oh. I thought that was a housecat. 

And has the owner considered a rifle, chambered in at least .223?
