Burmese python food

Just when you thought it was safe to come to Florida, comes this story out of Miami Gardens. Frances, a one-year-old Siamese cat pictured here as the huge bulge in the 12-foot Burmese python, was gobbled up while she frolicked in her back yard.

The snake was captured and taken to the Sense of Wonder Nature Center at AD Barnes National Park.
