Did the python swallow the hunter?  Before or after the deer?

Well,...........

The "deer hunter" is the python.....the python was hunting deer, got one, swallowed it and then was killed, hence the deer hunter was killed.

Too deep I guess.

Not sure what pics were with that link.  I work with folks that are with the District that caught/shot that snake - there was one picture that showed the buldge of the deer.  Made it very plain why folks think there forms are too small when they get them for their snake, that skin can stretch beyond what seems comprehensible when the snake is alive.

Saw something similar recently on one of those time wasting home video shows. A guy and his three boys were camping in Africa and stumbled upon some type of huge constrictor with a big bulge in it's belly. The snake got nervous (couldn't move very well) with all the people around and regurgetated the small deer (or African equivilent). All on video. It was pretty cool actually!

I think they need to put a bounty on those things so well can kill this invasive species off.  Like, $5 a foot.  It sucks what bounties did to some indigenous species, but this is a case where it could be put to good use.
