All on principle of food chain. Respect?
That calf was dead the moment it went inside the pythons throat & got suffocated.

What sense does it make now to beat the python to free the dead calf ?
no it is wrong

they might have killed both the animals
that Nilgai was food for next 6 months for the snake
They were attempting to save a calf that was already dead. It's curious how people prioritize saving a calf over a snake simply because the calf is more relatable physiologically.

It¡¯s against the nature, everyone has the right to earn their food. So it¡¯s incorrect to interfere in the natural world.
