30-minute struggle! Python devours a wallaby in front of shocked golfers

 A four-metre python has swallowed a wallaby (small kangaroo) after slithering on to a Queensland golf course as shocked players watched on. Golfers stood in disbelief as the 30-minute struggle between reptile and marsupial was spotted at Paradise Palms golf course on Saturday morning. Robert Willemse, who’s been a member at the course for almost 10 years, told The Cairns Post the snake got hold of the wallaby’s head and rolled into the middle of the fairway on the 17th hole. After devouring the wallaby, the python returned to the bushes.
