Our snakes are pretty spoiled when you think about it.

That is just amazing. Just goes to show, if they can kill it, fit it and swallow it, they probably will. A 150 lb meal is downright spectacular! Nature is truly incredible!!!
I'll stick to keeping snakes whose prey I measure in grams

What's more amazing to me is that they could even get their coils around an antelope or a gazelle. I understand scavengers like hyenas. They could very easily be messing with a large constrictor and get caught. But an antelope? Humans have to shoot them from long distance to take them down. Lions have to chase them down in order to eat them. granted those prey items aren't regular meals by any means but it's impressive that it could even happen.
