    Scientists in the US have measured how boa constrictors end the lives of their prey.

    The work has busted a myth that the snakes suffocate their victims.

    Researchers took measurements - including blood pressure and heart activity - from anaesthetised rats gripped by the snakes.

    This showed that the lethal grip restricted blood flow severely enough to cut off the blood flow supplying oxygen to its vital organs.
