Wow. These are really cool photos of a snake consuming a monitor lizard. Reportedly in Arizona.
From my email “These pictures were taken by one of the the road crew at Cloudbreak, Arizona last week. It took a total of 5 hours for the snake to finish off the Goanna (Sand Monitor). As you can see, they put some signage up so it wouldn’t be run over.”

This is a black headed python eating a goanna in Australia.
I believe you’re right. Thanks for the correction. Here is a post on another website that sheds some light on the pictures.
…actually that’s a bullsnake eating a gecko…
..oh, and cloudbreak is a small town in the county of Broken Wind, Arizona.
These photos were taken by a member of the Cloudbreak mine crew in the Pilbara region of western Australia.
The animal is know here as a goanna (lizard) and the snake a black headed python.
The uniform on the man is their mine clothes.
It’s illegal to kill snakes in Aussie hence the markers to stop it being run over.

That doesn’t look like a gecko AT ALL, it does look like a monitor…I looked again…geckos are NEVER that big!
