Eastern Brown Snakes lock horns in Australia
In a video from Australia, two Eastern Brown snakes, which are among the world’s most venomous snakes, can be seen entangled in a twisting, violent struggle. Shared by Snake Catchers Adelaide, the clip shows the males battling for ‘dominance’, likely in pursuit of a nearby female. The snakes coil tightly around each other, trying to overpower and pin their rival. These fights, while intense, rarely result in death. Instead, they’re shows of strength to win mates.

Zigzag snaked dance in Pune, viewers call it ‘Sarpamani ritual’
A bizarre video filmed on a public road in Pune Cantonment shows three snakes appearing to move in a perfectly synchronized, zigzag pattern. The video was shared widely on Instagram
and it also puzzled viewers, with some interpreting it as a mystical “Sarpamani” ritual, while others suggested it was a classic mating season battle. Two snakes coil and twist as if choreographed, while a third watches, and the exact behaviour remains unclear.


King Cobras fight to impress a mate
In another widely circulated video, two massive king cobras are seen locked in a brutal showdown lasting nearly five hours. The motive was to win over a potential female mate. The serpents wrestle, wrapping around each other and pushing the other down, and it’s a pure display of dominance. Eventually, one cobra concedes and retreats into the forest, leaving the other victorious.

Brave little rabbit stuns the internet
One of the most surprising videos to recently go viral shows a defenseless looking rabbit taking on a venomous snake in a field. Viewers were stunned as the rabbit fearlessly attacked the snake, dodging the snake's hisses and counterattacking with shocking audacity. Unlike typical predator-prey footage, this clip flips the narrative as the prey fights back. Against all odds, the rabbit succeeds in chasing the snake away.

Python and King Cobra face-off
A video from Rayagada, Odisha shows a rare face-off between a python and a king cobra. In nature, king cobras often prey on other snakes, but this encounter didn’t go as planned. The python, too large to be swallowed, begins to strangle the cobra in self-defense. The two serpents wrestle, coil, and struggle intensely in the forest undergrowth. Ultimately, both survive the battle.
