Rich Kruger was near the Shark Valley Visitor Center in Miami-Dade on Monday when he came across the shocking sight.

After lifting the python about halfway out of the water, the gator appears to relax before lying partly on top of the now lifeless snake.
As of Thursday morning, Kruger’s video had more than 20,000 views.

The news follows that of another Florida man who was seen traveling around downtown Jacksonville Beach holding a large venomous snake in his arms.
