10 Reasons Why Men Should Quit Watching Po*n

18 foot Burmese python eats a 5 foot alligator in the Florida everglades

18 foot Burmese python eats a 5 foot alligator in the Florida everglades



A geoscientist and bikini model has shared disgusting footage of the moment a five foot alligator was removed from an 18ft Burmese python.

Rosie Moore, 26, and a team of scientists were seen slowly pulling the still intact gator from the monster snake's stomach at their lab in Florida.

Speaking to DailyMail.com, she said it underscores the huge problem of invasive pythons in the Everglades, which usually prey on mammals and small reptiles.

She said they were able to perform research on the creature because it had been euthanized after being caught by field workers, which is required on sight in the state of Florida due to the predation.

'They called us and they said there was a large object in it, we thought it was either a deer or an alligator.'

When the gator was found during a necropsy of the python, Moore said: 'It's definitely shocking, it was my first time ever seeing an event like that, I've never seen a python with something like that in it.'

The Instagram post was 'for fun' but she was 'really surprised it went that viral. It honestly surprised me how little people knew about the invasive pythons in Florida and their impacts on our native populations down there.'

Moore, who specializes in spatial technology and human environmental interactions, says that it's going to be a difficult problem to solve. 

She said that knowledge of the problem has grown due to 'a variety of things. It could just be more reporting, social media, but also the Burmese population has increased sizably.'

The pythons reproduce quickly and are able to camouflage in their surroundings, which means according to Moore: 'It's impossible for anybody to really know where they're at or how many are out there.'

Moore also works on the side as a model, which she got into 2-3 years ago on freelance during the weekends and free nights through friends. Her page now has over 16,000 followers. 

She said it's important to break the stereotype of women working in geosciences, where females make up just about 30 percent of those working. 

'In media, female scientists are often portrayed as the shy, dorky characters. I think it's important for young women to see that is not the case, and that being a scientist can actually be a cool thing to aspire to be,' Moore said.

She added: 'In that sense, I think I do a decent job of showing off both sides of my life and maintaining my feminine qualities while still being able to put my field gear on and go out and get dirty for some data collection.'

Given the complex problem, there aren't a lot of simple solutions to preventing predation from Burmese pythons, with Moore joking that some people suggested to her on Instagram that 'we throw jaguars into the Everglades to hunt them.' 

Indeed, as Moore wrote on Instagram: 'Due to the the subtropical environment of South Florida, paired with the Burmese pythons long life span and rapid reproduction, these snakes have successfully invaded ecologically sensitive areas such as Everglades National Park. 

While Florida is trying to get rid of the snakes, they're still protected by state anti-cruelty laws, so hunters must be able to prove they've dispatched the animals humanely. 

'This poses a threat to a variety of wildlife, due to the pythons wide dietary preferences.' 

Moore's advice is a warning to pet owners: 'If you get an animal or reptile that you won't be able to take care of for your whole life, you probably shouldn't get it and if you do and can't take care of it, you should re-home it.'

Reasons Why There Is A High Rate Of Divorce

Marriage is not as the way it used to be. Compare today's marriage to when our parents and grandparents got wedded.   D ivorce is now on the rise.

A Very Victorian Two-Penny Hangover

During the Great Depreciation in London, people who couldn’t afford to sleep in a bad could pay twopence for a spot on a bench with a clothesline tied in front of them, so they could sleep while hanging over a rope . The term ‘hangover’ is universally understood to mean the disproportionate suffering that comes after a night of over-indulgence. But where does the term actually come from? One possible explanation is, somewhat strangely, Victorian England. During the Victorian era the practice of paying for a ‘two-penny hangover’ was incredibly popular among the country’s homeless population and the term ‘two penny hangover’ was so commonly used that it made its way into contemporary literature. A two-penny hangover is not the description of a very cheap night out, nor is it the amount it would cost you to get drunk in Victorian England. It is actually somewhere you could go to sleep if you were one of the thousands of homeless and destitute living in the country’s main cities at the tim...

How To Ask For A Date

Asking someone out on a date can be stressful and anxiety-inducing. If you've ever felt overwhelmed or uncertain on how to approach asking someone out, don't worry, you're not alone. The stress of asking someone out combined with fear of rejection prevent many people from taking the first step in a romantic relationship. In America, 64% of people are single. Luckily, there are a couple of simple strategies and techniques that you can use to get a date with someone and overcome the fears that you may have. 1. Make eye contact and smile. Eye contact and smiling are two universal acts of flirting. Looking at someone from across a room lets them know that you notice them. When you smile, you're showing them that you are open to talking to them and that you may be interested in them, or that you like how they look. Don't force a smile or stare at them, however! -You can meet a potential date at school, work, a grocery store, a bar, or in other social situatio...

The Macabre True Story Of Edward Paisnel, The Beast Of Jersey

 The Macabre True Story Of Edward Paisnel, The Beast Of Jersey Throughout the 1960s, Edward Paisnel appeared to be a pillar of his small community on the English Channel Island of Jersey. He was a family man who was devoted to his wife Joan and her young children, and he even played Santa Claus at Christmastime for the young foster children at the group home that Joan founded. But when he wasn't spending time with his family or doing good deeds, he was donning this mask and sneaking into his neighbors' homes at night in order to sexually assault women and children. It would take more than a decade for police to finally catch up with the “Beast of Jersey" as they repeatedly focused on other suspects, blind to the fact that a man like Paisnel could commit such crimes. Officers only caught him when he ran a red light one day in 1971 and they happened to see his mask sitting right there in his car. Edward Paisnel committed more than a dozen rapes and assaults in the Channel Is...
