There is definitely a lesson about greed in that picture.

there was this one pic. either in ripley's or the guisness book. but it depicted a crocodile being swallowed by an anaconda. and its backbone wasn't broken. so even though it was dead its sharp hind legs were thrashing and cut the snake open. which also died.

</P><P>
</P><P>McPherson "Dorson" Wright's attention was drawn to an object floating on the surface nearby. The fish, aptly named the Great Swallower, was just 7.5 inches in length. The fish it had eaten measured 34 inches, which is close to three feet in length.
</P><P>
Mr. Wright said that normally its expected that "big fish to eat down the small fish," but this greedy little creature had a huge appetite and eyes far bigger than its belly.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=489896&in_page_id=1811"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.dailymail.co.uk/img/AA04E478-6148-4DA6-9E9F-B5A68A3D5E1A" alt="Snake" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=489896&in_page_id=1811"><P>"When I first saw it, I really couldn't believe my eyes," said Wright.

On later inspection by scientists, it was established that the fish had consumed an extremely large and aggressive "snake mackerel" that was more than four times its own length.
