A massive snake as big as three men refused to die when hunters shot it in the head. The 16ft Burmese python stayed alive for 25 minutes after hunter Eric Bramblet pulled the trigger. The 24-year-old is paid to kill snakes in Florida, US, where the invasive species has no natural predators. The python’s appetite for native wildlife is even said to extend to Florida’s alligators. [...]  Eric and his fellow hunters are paid by the South Florida Water Management District to eliminate the pythons.
