Viral video shows a huge cannibal alligator gobble up another gator in South Carolina.
The monster predator dwarfs its prey, which appears to already be dead as it’s gruesomely swallowed down whole, in a yard in the Low Country area of the state.
The “snack” was a 6-foot gator, said Twitter user Taylor Soper, who posted the video to Twitter Thursday. The video was shot by his father in their yard in Murrells Inlet, Soper said in a post.
He later posted additional videos showing the lead-up to the viral video, with the larger alligator appearing to chomp down on the smaller gator and hold it under water.
The smaller alligator feebly tries to wriggle free, as its tail flaps weakly, the video shows.
It’s not unusual for large alligators to eat other alligators, reports said, but that didn’t make the video any less unsettling for social media users.
“Please update this with the location so I know never to go anywhere near there,” one Twitter user stated.
“If I witnessed that in my backyard, the house would be up for sale the next day,” said another.
Others responded to the video with memes and jokes.
“I don’t appreciate being filmed at the Golden Corral,” wrote one user.
