Is is possible for an anaconda or a python to be killed by a poisonous snake in its domain?

Question

I have never heard of a python or anaconda being bitten and killed by a poisonous snake but also know that they are not immune to poison. They must share their domains with venomous species, but does anyone know of it actually happening?

Answer 1

i have the same wonder, but i think both have antivenom in their blood.

Answer 2

I saw a video on the Discovery Channel once and they showed a large king cobra killing and eating a small reticulated python, so it's possible. But most of your non-snake eating venomous snakes, like vipers, tend to leave other snakes alone. I know here in the U.S., rattlers are often found sharing their hibernation dens with rat snakes, gopher snakes, and bull snakes. They don't view each other as a threat since they all pretty much eat warm blooded prey. Here's the video I was talking about, unfortunately this version is in German. Cool video nonetheless.
