The video is posted on the YouTube channel called Holistic Channel100. The bio explains that it is managed by a snake rescue organisation based in Punjab, Pakistan. The video is posted with a caption that reads, “The mongoose is known for its ability to fight and kill venomous snakes, especially cobras. Their specialised acetylcholine receptors render them immune to venom, while their thick coats and quick speed also come in handy during conflicts.”
The video opens to show the two creatures standing in the middle of a road. Soon they lunge at each other and start fighting. The sounds that the mongoose and the snake make during the fight make the video even scarier to watch.
Take a look at the video:
