A hungry carpet python lowered itself from the roof of a building at Churches of Christ Sanctuary Park Retirement Community last week, and took a large goanna in its mouth whole.
A photo captured by a community care worker shows the python suspended from the roof with the goanna hanging from its mouth.
Retirement living manager Russell Elms said residents were used to seeing a variety of native fauna around the village, which backs onto a national park.
He said they were getting an increasing number of animal visitors searching for water and food in the drought.
