A 5 pounder that ingested a 4 pounder? Or a four foot snake, maybe a 1/2 grown duck? Lots of possibilities. LOL.
I’ve been around a long time and seen some amazing “swallowing” acts myself. This one may be the topper though.
Thought I’d seen it all finding a dead bass of about 4 pounds with a 3 pound catfish in its mouth. The cat was still alive and trashing in a few inches of water with its pectoral fin spines protruding out of the sides of the bass’ mouth.
As @Kessler said, if not a fake, that must have been some meal. Don’t know that I’ve ever seen a gravid female that swollen, but guess that’s another possibility.
@Abe C. If that smallie wasn’t full of eggs and actually ate something so large as the photo seems to show, I suggest you use the whole squirrel skin on that fly Abe. 😜😜😜
