Best Answer

Prey is killed by a process known as constriction; after an animal has been grasped to restrain it, a number of coils are hastily wrapped around it. Then, by applying and maintaining sufficient pressure to prevent it from inhaling, the prey eventually succumbs due to asphyxiation.

Pythons are constrictors. They wrap around the body of their prey tightly enough to keep it from breathing.
