Pythons squeeze their prey using a technique called constriction. Once they capture their prey, they wrap their bodies around it and apply pressure, tightening their grip with each heartbeat of the prey. This method not only suffocates the animal but also prevents it from escaping, allowing the python to consume it whole. The constriction is precise; pythons can sense the prey's heartbeat and release their grip once the prey is no longer alive.
