Finwitch:
Well - Nagini *is* venomous (Wormtail had to milk her)-- and also a
very BIG snake. King Cobra maybe.
But as for Voldemort feeding people and other things to Nagini: Who
says they don't shrink these people (or turn them into mice) by magic?
We just can't think of size like that with magic involved -- not where
trunks etc. are commonly expected to hold as much stuff as needed...
Who knows, maybe Nagini can do magic like that... Snakes do swallow
their prey as whole, you know... ah the wonders of nature.
