Men cut Anaconda open to find a pitbull (photos)

In a video which was shot in Cuiaba, Brazil, and uploaded to LiveLeak, a group of men were filmed cutting open a swollen Anaconda open. One man cuts the skin and stomach lining and as soon as a big enough slit is made, he reaches inside and pulls out a brown pitbull. It is not known how the dog ended up as the large snake's last meal. See more photos after the cut...

The video of the pitbull's extraction emerged on LiveLeak, alongside the caption: "Big Pitbull was eaten by a bigger Anaconda."

Anacondas are known for tackling big meals. They can easily eat large mammals such as jaguars and deer. Giant anacondas have been recorded to grow up to a staggering 17 feet. It remains unclear whether the snake in the video died eating the pitbull, or for another reason.
