Seems like there are a lot of videos of a snake eating another snake, like carpe said, a lot of times a non venemous eating a venemous, but never videos of how the eaten succumbed to the eater.

How does a snake like a coach whip subdue and eat a diamondback? Doesn't seem like that part ever gets captured.

Several are constrictors, but I THINK (don't know) Coachwhips rely on speed.
I think they eat them alive.
I'm sure a Herp will chime in.

It's a baby racer. Common name depends on location, species is Coluber constrictor.

That greyband is gorgeous. Best looking snake I have seen on here.

I bought my sister a grey banded king snake as a graduation gift (biology major). He was a cool snake.

Here you go. An ode to the best snake found in Texas (though I am sure 12thmane might disagree)

Welp. Add "swimming in neighborhood creek" to the ever growing list of things I'll never let my kids do.

Poor little dude.

I came up on this guy yesterday not long after he was run over. In fact, he buzzed at me and tried to lift his head. I'm guessing he was 3-3.5 feet long. Been a while since I've seen one. I hate that he was hit. Very rural, wooded backroad with no houses nearby.

Located in western Middle Tennessee.

Freaking people! Looks just like the one I saw several years ago here in E Tenn.

I was going to say belt but we would probably need longer snakes.

zooguy, do you know if we have rattlers over in the Memphis area? I've been out in the woods and fish a lot in remote lakes/areas around woods and have seen copperheads and cottonmouths as well as many non-venomous species but never a rattler...Memphis is more delta flatland and it doesn't start to get rocky/hilly until you go east past the Tennessee River. May be a terrain thing that we don't have timber rattlers over here or very rare...

They're listed as statewide, but their habitat actually prevents that in truth. They prefer rocky, steep wooded slopes (or, that is where I have found them).
