A 23 foot long, 70 kilogram (almost 160 pound) Burmese Python killed and ate 11 guard dogs in a Malaysian fruit orchard before being discovered and captured by locals. It took six men, three hours to catch the snake.

"I was shocked to see such a huge python," orchard-keeper Ali Yusof told the New Straits Times http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/nst/Friday/National/20070126080533/Article/index_html

According to the New Strait Times, "Ali said he had four dogs to guard his orchard, but for the past three months the canines had disappeared one after another, and he had to replace them. He suspected his guard dogs were being eaten by a beast after he found footprints of the dogs disappearing into a swampy area. Ali and the villagers contacted the Wildlife and National Parks Department in Segamat and the officers collected the python yesterday."

The snake was released into the wild unharmed, the dogs, of course, weren't as fortunate.
