This is an older article or a new version of an article from the past, as it happens frequently.
Coastal carpets will routinely take flying foxes.
They will eat just about anything they can. Cane toads, not so much, but coastal carpet pythons and many other species in the carpet group will take huge prey items.
There is a video out somewhere showing a coastal eating a dog and the leash was still attached to the dog.
I honestly find carpet pythons to be some of the most amazing snakes out there because many of them can adapt very well to human encroachment. They aren't true "giant pythons", but they eat like they are.
I like seeing this again.
