THIS is the horror moment a 12ft alligator named Godzilla drags a huge python twice its size through the Everglades.
Footage shows the monster reptile calmly swimming through the Florida swamp holding its dead prey between its teeth.
The python is almost as twice as long as the gator and floats down the side of the beast and then behind Godzilla for a distance again.
In the video, an aghast tourist can be heard exclaiming “it’s huge” and saying “that’s a really, really big python.”
After swimming slowly down the swamp, Godzilla appears to drag its prey into the bushes.
Burmese pythons are an invasive species to the Everglades but have flourished in the area and grow to gigantic sizes.
The clip was shot from an observation tower at Shark Valley in Everglades National Park by tour guide Kelly Alvarez.
Alvarez told USA Today she thinks the alligator was 12 feet long with the snake being around double that.
She said: “I have seen many alligators eating pythons out here….I have never, ever, ever seen a python that large.”
One of her tourists had screamed at the sight alerting her to the brutal fact of nature.
Alvarez said: “I thought it was a log floating on the surface of water or something like that.
“Then I noticed the alligator moving it.”
The terrifying clip was recorded on Thanksgiving Day – with the alligator later sitting down to enjoy its own meal.
Burmese pythons usually grow between 10 and 16 feet and are considered one of the largest snakes in the world.
They are native to Southeast Asia but have been considered an invasive species in the US – especially in Florida.
Despite this, they have flourished after being introduced to the Everglades.
In July of 2023, a group of python hunters caught the longest Burmese python ever measured, The Palm Beach Post reported.
The 19-foot long snake was caught in the waters of the Big Cypress National Preserve in eastern Collier County.
The python caught in the clip could be even longer – but that would not stop Godzilla killing it.
Alvarez said the snake could be bloated and may have been dead for some time as alligators hang on to their pray for some time.
A rotting carcass is easier for the beasts to then break apart and eat.
Burmese pythons (Python bivittatus) are considered semi-aquatic due to their excellent swimming capabilities.
While young Burmese pythons mostly spend their lives in the trees, they head down to ground level as they get older – and bigger.
This species of snake is one of the top five largest snakes in the world.
These reptiles can stretch to nearly 20ft long in adulthood, and weigh more than 200 pounds.
Though they are about 24inches (61cm) long, and just 4ounces (0.25lbs) when they hatch.
Burmese pythons are non-venomous, though you certainly want to avoid a bite if you can.
Their lifespan is around 20 years, although the oldest living python recorded died at 28 years old.
They are solitary animals, and only really come together to mate in the spring.
Burmese pythons are currently listed as ‘vulnerable’ on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species.
However, they are an invasive species in Florida, after being introduced to the US state at some point in the late 20th century.
