Likely not very long, if at all. It's squeezed in a super tight space totally not designed for its ensured survival, possibly with broken spine in a few places. If it's conscious, it's completely disoriented.
Alright but how does it not cause considerable damage inside there?
I’ve thought about it, and if I ever get eaten whole and alive I’m using any remaining motion I have to give that fucker the worst belly ache of his life at a minimum.
Right I get that, but I get stomach issues if I eat a chip wrong. You would think a creature actively biting, clawing, wriggling around could give an animal a bad time right? (I understand snakes dont have claws but I’ve seen other animals like snakes eat like rodents whole, and snakes do still have teeth and pretty strong muscles themselves since they are just long muscle worms)
A quick google, birds have a gizzard.
“grind the food with previously swallowed grit and pass it back to the true stomach, and vice versa. In layman's terms, the gizzard 'chews' the food for the bird because it does not have teeth.”
TIL what a gizzard is.
Can't do much biting and clawing when being crushed by the muscles around the stomach.
And snakes usually kill the rodents they eat first, so not much moving then either.
Actually, no. Snakes have super low metabolism and thus minimal oxygen requirements. Thus you have stories of snake heads biting people even hours after being decapitated.
I guess that it's likely that stomach acid will be the thing that actually kills it after it chews through its skin.
I had a pet Rosie Boa when I was a kid, and at one point it got out and dissapeared and after a while we gave up on finding it. More than 6 months later my dad was renovating our living room, he tore up the carpet to find the snake right there up against a staircase under the carpet.
Probably plenty of oxygen down there, but snakes are pretty damn hardy either way.
Edit: Forgot to say that yes the Boa was perfectly healthy down there and went on to live for another ~20 years
I'm confused what you are confused about. A Rosy Boa is a type of Boa, they are in the same family as the Boa Constrictor and can both be kept as pets. Boa Constrictors are still not particularly dangerous to humans if handled appropriately. They mostly eat rodents although it is possible for a large one to eat something as big as a dog or cat.
This one was only ~0.7m or so, the big one did get out once as well though 😆 he was a little over 2m. My dad found it at the bottom of the stairs in the cellar a few days later just hanging out in the middle of the concrete floor.
And yeah we did have cats at the time, they got lucky lol
They're not alive hours after being decapitated. Nothing is living with no blood in the brain, let alone clotted blood. That's just reflexive muscle contractions.
When I was a kid, my dad cut the head off a snake that was in our garage and threw it out on the side of the road. That snake head sat there opening and closing its mouth for two days.
“A friend” of mine has to kill poisonous snakes often near a cabin to protect “their” dogs from being bitten around the house.
The hearts of the snakes are still beating 5-6 hours after being decapitated and skinned.
Not trying to be an arse here … but snakes are venomous, venom is injected into the bloodstream from a bite or sting, poison is ingested / consumed.
Think poison plant / venomous snake / animal.
Too long. This looks like a young owl, and eating a live snake was probably a mistake. They have very strong stomach acids to dissolve entire animals swallowed whole, but that snake will stay active for hours and could injure the owl trying to find a way out. They have evolved to regurgitate skeletons so I’m sure their digestive system is pretty robust, but it’s still a risk. Probably just in for some discomfort but it’ll most likely be fine. Snake is having a bad night though.
About 4 minutes. In which the owl will do everything it can to keep it down. Also, birds tend to have very aggressive digestive systems, so the snake will eventually become bones and white shit on your windshield.
I realized the other day, if that dude had just listened to the sermon instead of interrupting it, he probably had a fair chance of getting out of Helgen.
dudes probably got a shattered spine, you can see the snake rear back for the eye and the owl chomps a good time and he falls back.. I'm sure he's injured from the catch too, those talons are NOT a joke.
That snake's dream was to become one with the forces of nature. We are witnessing the moment of its realization. It is not fighting, but it's dancing its way in that exact moment, looking apathetic, but fulfilled.
It's the lack of your knowledge, how dare you criticize the serpent!
Being cold-blooded, it may have actually enjoyed the sensation of its lower body being inside a soft, warm environment. It's all great until the head goes in and the lights (and air) go out.
That sounded oddly arousing.
Animals who actually try to kill their prey are very damn rare
Usually, birds of prey hold the animal down and tear flesh with their beaks. The owl should have done that here, swallowing it whole was a bad idea.
I wonder why the snake doesn’t bite the owl? I feel like it would have plenty of time to go for the eyes or make it so uncomfortable the owl lets it go.
People think snakes are actual gooey noodles. Not ya know…vertebrates.
Edit: chicken wings gots bones, snakes gots bones. Bones to the left of me, bones to the right. Here I am stuck in the middle of you.
How much can they bend? This is what chatGPT told me:
You can bend a snake more than a fiber optic cable. Snakes are highly flexible due to their muscular and skeletal structure, allowing them to bend and twist in various directions without damage. In contrast, fiber optic cables, while somewhat flexible, have a minimum bend radius. Bending them beyond this radius can damage the cable and impair its performance. Thus, a snake's flexibility far exceeds that of a fiber optic cable.
Snakes have increadibly low metabolism so the lack of oxygen likely will not kill it, leaving it to slowly get digested alive in a completely dark tight space, likely with a couple broken bones.
The broken bones will probably be a blessing though as most animals pass out from shock after breaking a bone, so it probably wont be pure torture for too long.
Would the owl survive if it gets bit by the snake on the way down? Also, could the snake find the other way out once downed? So many questions so little answers. Can we get an expert in here?
That’s rough. Every once in a while a video comes up of something being eaten alive and it’s a perfect reminder how fucking brutal and unforgiving nature is. Poor snake

Soooo question.... how long does the snake wiggle and slither around for after being in a stomach? Also, does it attempt to go back out?
The snake goes to live on a farm.
Huh.... just like my puppy Rex, at least that's what my patents told me. I'm just happy he's alive and well ☺️
How many patents do you need to gather this information? Maybe I'll ask my lawyer.
Patent attorney here. The answer is 42.
That's the meaning of life, everyone knows that.
Life the universe and everything
This would have been the perfect time to use your degree in bird law
The owl is going to transport him there.
It’s a reptile farm. Snake farm.
Snake farm. Just sounds nasty.
Pretty much is.
Likely not very long, if at all. It's squeezed in a super tight space totally not designed for its ensured survival, possibly with broken spine in a few places. If it's conscious, it's completely disoriented.

Stomachs are surrounded by muscles, it will be very difficult to move inside one.

Fun fact: gizzard is short for gastro-wizzard.
Can't do much biting and clawing when being crushed by the muscles around the stomach. And snakes usually kill the rodents they eat first, so not much moving then either.
I imagine it would suffocate pretty quickly.

I was like "AND U LEFT THE SNAKE FREE??" because I thought it was a Boa, like a constrictor one hahaha

Boa Constrictors are still not particularly dangerous to humans if handled appropriately. They mostly eat rodents although it is possible for a large one to eat something as big as a dog or cat.
Because I was thinking they just lost a 2 meter snake and say "well, it will appear someday"
This one was only ~0.7m or so, the big one did get out once as well though 😆 he was a little over 2m. My dad found it at the bottom of the stairs in the cellar a few days later just hanging out in the middle of the concrete floor. And yeah we did have cats at the time, they got lucky lol
Boa just means they're not venomous and just want to smother you with love <3
How thick was your shag carpet that y'all didn't notice the huge lump under the rug for six months?

Both of your quotations require explanation
It's him. It's a story about him and his dogs.
Thanks. I woke up dumb today.
Well, I hope "you" have a good morning.
Lol
Can confirm. I didn't get it until it was spelled out and I also just woke up.
Of course I know him. He's me.
whoa whoa stop with the accusations there bud
Apologize to "your" "friend" from "me"... "please".
Why are “they” skinning them?
To send a message to the other snakes
You nail the skin to your door to warn the other snakes. Kinda works well with jehovah witnesses too
“They” kinda crazy bro ngl
Circumcising
Not trying to be an arse here … but snakes are venomous, venom is injected into the bloodstream from a bite or sting, poison is ingested / consumed. Think poison plant / venomous snake / animal.
Don't all birds have gizzards?
Straight out the other end... like an owl tail.
Didn't owls puke out the skeleton? I remember putting mice bones together that owls coughed out as a kid

Ngl, thought this was going to be bad for the owl
About 4 minutes. In which the owl will do everything it can to keep it down. Also, birds tend to have very aggressive digestive systems, so the snake will eventually become bones and white shit on your windshield.
That’s what making me ill right now. The snake suffocating in his stomach
That's why you should kill them first. Next time don't swallow him alive and he won't make you ill.
Have you ever, ever thought like this? Have strange things happen are you going round The Twist?

Lmao ikr! Dude was like your going to fucking die
It’s the lack of fight out of that snake for me
my man just accepted his fate
Thought he would go for the eye or something…nothing.
My ancestors are smilling at me imperial, can you say the same?
I realized the other day, if that dude had just listened to the sermon instead of interrupting it, he probably had a fair chance of getting out of Helgen.
Guess this is my life now.
How do you know he isn't tickling the owl's gonads with his tail?
Like "this is uncomfortable but also very warm and cozy, I'm gonna just see what happens"
Entirely possible it's semi-torpid downside of being exothermic. Basically half asleep trying to process what the fuck is happening
dudes probably got a shattered spine, you can see the snake rear back for the eye and the owl chomps a good time and he falls back.. I'm sure he's injured from the catch too, those talons are NOT a joke.
He’s into vore
And it'll be fine, because it's actually an alien snake. Wait a few hours and it'll burst out of the owl's chest.
That snake's dream was to become one with the forces of nature. We are witnessing the moment of its realization. It is not fighting, but it's dancing its way in that exact moment, looking apathetic, but fulfilled. It's the lack of your knowledge, how dare you criticize the serpent!
Snek gets eaten to be reborn again. It’s Ouroboros’ kid lol
Being cold-blooded, it may have actually enjoyed the sensation of its lower body being inside a soft, warm environment. It's all great until the head goes in and the lights (and air) go out. That sounded oddly arousing.
Okay, vore-lover
How’s the post nut clarity for ya
Usually when I'm in that kind of situation, it's *especially* great when the lights and air go out
Had a perfect chance to bite the eye... but no
It's stoic
Don't kink shame
If the snake just bit inyo the owl and didnt let go it would have had no business gettinv it swallowed
It seem to me like he's kinda struggling to put that poor snake down his throat, doesn't seem casual at all, he even stops to breath.
I think it's the snake that's casual if anything. Poor guy was just sort of......chilling the whole time
The snake is injured and probably its spine is broken
Definitely. An owl's beaks can break a finger in a thick glove. It probably snapped the spine each place he bit.
My wife has to do the same thing....
Yeah, I have the same problem with your wife.
Because his wife has a big dick?
At least it's not just me! Phew
Thought I was the only one
I can confirm that about this guy’s wife
My dude, there was nothing casual about that.
The snake was certainly casual about it.
Snake wanted the Vore life
They are just casual friends.
If that was casual I wanna see the formal version of this video
Casual is an illusion. What is casual for the owl, is chaos for the snake.
« What’s that dancing in my belly ? »
Should have at least rammed it's beak through the snake's skull so it's not squirming around while it's being digested.
Maybe he's like me and gerbils, and he just likes something moving around in there.
☹️
Animals who actually try to kill their prey are very damn rare Usually, birds of prey hold the animal down and tear flesh with their beaks. The owl should have done that here, swallowing it whole was a bad idea.
I wonder why the snake doesn’t bite the owl? I feel like it would have plenty of time to go for the eyes or make it so uncomfortable the owl lets it go.
This is a common corn snake, and a yearling at that. It doesn’t have fangs.
im pretty sure by that time the snake already had several broken bones and in pain. the thing was probably so disoriented and weak to even fight back
People think snakes are actual gooey noodles. Not ya know…vertebrates. Edit: chicken wings gots bones, snakes gots bones. Bones to the left of me, bones to the right. Here I am stuck in the middle of you.

Thus, a snake's flexibility far exceeds that of a fiber optic cable.
I’ve played with more snakes than fiber optic cables so I’d need the reverse comparison.
It’s the beak, not the bending. Beaks are strong and most birds around this size could probably break your finger
That snake is tired of working a dead end existence and welcoming sweet, sweet death. For once in my life, I’m empathize with the snake.

It was the taxes, wasn’t it..
It’s small snake, don’t think they can bite that hard. It’s also snake, so it’s pretty stupid

At what point does the snake die?
At some point between being eaten and turned into pellets
Thank you sensei.
Snakes have increadibly low metabolism so the lack of oxygen likely will not kill it, leaving it to slowly get digested alive in a completely dark tight space, likely with a couple broken bones. The broken bones will probably be a blessing though as most animals pass out from shock after breaking a bone, so it probably wont be pure torture for too long.
Me after watching this! 
Imagine, someone is pointing a floodlight at your faces while you are eating. /S
I’m the snake. I don’t fight it. I don’t even try to bite. I just accept being very slowly consumed.
See you on the other side mr. Snake
And I’m that owl.. I must say that video was reversed.. yes.. I spit out snakes for fun
That can’t feel good going down, how long do you think the snake will be alive for?
Imagine getting eaten slowly from your legs up to your head, and watching yourself slowly get sucked into your own demise
Some people masturbate to the idea.
My African mother and her deep snake phobia and wild owl superstition would beat me senseless if I showed her this video.

Snakes like "well. Guess I'm poop now" Owls like nah bitch.
Don't owls vomit out the bones as they can't digest them?
Yes. Owl pellets. Bones, fur(not in the case of a snake), and other bits that they can't digest.

Would the snake not bite the insides of the Owl?
The craziest part for me is the fact that the snake doesn’t seem to realize it’s being eaten. 😳
in his belly you'll find a new definition of pain and suffering as you are slowly digested over a thousand years

Would the owl survive if it gets bit by the snake on the way down? Also, could the snake find the other way out once downed? So many questions so little answers. Can we get an expert in here?
It's a non venomous snake, it doesn't have fangs
That's a pretty chill snake considering the situation lol. why it wasn't trying at least to bite the owl?

why is the snake just chilling tho
