How is a python able to swallow prey larger than its own head?

Biology - Animal Kingdom - Learning Points.

Pythons are constrictors, which means they kill their prey by squeezing.

Since snakes cannot chew or tear into their food, they must swallow prey whole.

During feeding, a python can push its windpipe out of its mouth.

It takes a python around a week to digest a meal as large as an antelope.
