Крокодиловые вараны не могут вскрыть тушу кролика

I wanted to see if Salvadorii would group feed on a large prey item in the same way that Komodo Dragons group feed and placed a huge rabbit in their enclosure (a defrosted dead rabbit of course). I discovred the following. - They will group feed like Komodo Dragons - The fur and fat layers on a huge rabbit are something the Salvadorii are not easily able to bite or claw through. I had to slice open the rabbits belly to make it easier for them to get through the layers. It was difficult to cut through the layers with a fairly sharp knife. - They will attempt to swallow prey items that appear impossible to swallow. I had to take the rabbit away from a male that was attempting to swallow it whole. Please note: No live animals are fed to the Salvadorii. Prey items are ordered frozen, defrosted, then fed to the lizards.
