It is amazing that the snake can gobble up something so big.

found a description of Suni.
Suni's are easily detecteble because they communicate mainly thru smell with their herd.they also leave scent on trees. Snakes have a sharp sense of smell.

My worry is that it got one of our Suni, looks about the right size. We don't have many on the property and we are trying to grow their numbers!

The African rock python feeds on a variety of large rodents, monkeys, warthog, antelopes, fruit bats, monitor lizards and even crocodiles in forest areas and on rats, poultry, dogs and goats in suburban areas.[
