[Music] snakes are powerful and stealthy predators that usually get their way when they attack a prey whether it's the Black Mamba the king cobra or the python snakes usually rule if you want to see how they rule keep watching as we count down the top 15 moments when huge snakes eat their prey that will make you cringe [Music] number 15 python everyone knows how tough hyenas are but this python has just finished killing one and is now swallowing it whole this is the first time I've seen a Python swallow hyena in this manner this is
completely insane this family of wild Boors goes for a walk in a swamp but something is waiting for them and it isn't their long lost cousin it's a python and it's ravenous the python gets so close close to the bores it's surprising they don't flee they stick around for some reason and the snake ignores them until it grabs one and coils around it when this happens the boar squeals until it dies this snake drags a goat out of the woods and begins to devour it the goat has already died most likely because of the snake's
attack consider how long this snake is it starts swallowing the goat hole in the water a python attacks a monitor lizard the snake begins to swall swallowed the lizard but it is unclear what happens next a python meets a tiger in this black and white film and a battle ensues the snake attempts to encircle the feline but the tiger sinks its powerful jaws into the snake's body despite this the snake manages to wrap itself around the tiger and just when you thought the tiger was going to win it appears it will be a snake but
don't take my word for it these two pythons are fighting because they both want to eat a rodent that has become trapped between the two reptiles the snakes are both interested in the prize and become entangled in the affair finally one of the snakes kills the other and instead of eating a small rodent he gets to eat a huge snake number 14 black mamba when a blackmamba approaches a Russell's Viper the Viper bites the Mamba first the Viper stopped moving and the Black Mamba is watching thinking how it's going to eat and enjoy this fresh
meal number 13 python versus deer this python is on the prowl and its Target is a deer the snake begins to suffocate the newborn deer when it is wrapped around its neck despite the mother's best efforts to free it unfortunately the reptile refuses to cooperate and the snake swallows the young deer a group of hunters witness an unusual sight when they come across a python devouring a bless box they arrive just as the snake is about to Devour the bless box head and the python devours the entire bless boach in under 5 hours it was
still there the next day undisturbed with a massive figure in its stomach the video was sped up eight times to show the entire process of the Python swallowing the blessbuck as well as the snake's strength and power as it squeezed the bzbox entrails apart to fit within its mouth this is extremely rare footage but these Hunters were fortunate enough to see it the python like many predators hunts in the dark it has sensors and its snout that detect whether prey is nearby the python uses bondage as a second weapon after gripping victims with its jaws
in a two-pronged attack the Python's grip on the springbock tightens with each extension as the python tightens its grip each breath becomes shallower until death by strangulation occurs right now the Jaws are putting on a show rather than chewing or dismembering their prey pythons consume it whole beginning with the head after this this python has one of the largest stomachs ever seen and it can go a year without eating number 12 python versus monkey these adult monkeys are constantly on the lookout for potential threats one of their most lethal threats is also one of their
most elusive its massive camouflaged body Blends into the leaf litter warm blooded prey is detected by the snake Indian pythons can grow to be up to 16 ft long and can easily swallow an entire monkey the python is aware that food is nearby and waits until the time is right the snake wraps its muscular body around its prey until it suffocates and swallows it whole number 11 anaconda versus cow because this snake is so hungry it decides to attack a cow that's right consider how the snake drags the cow out of its Corral and clings
to its leg is this something that you imagine could happen the person filming decides to stop for reasons I don't understand a live young cow is being devoured by this massive Anaconda a seen in the video it all begins with the head I know snakes can open their mouths wide but a cow is massive it will take months for the snake to digest such a massive animal but you'll know it's done when the cow's leg tips enter the snake's body this snake causes Havoc when it tries to suffocate another cow this cow on the other
hand refuses to accept its predicament and easily frees itself from the grip of the snake and flees number 10 snake versus lion there aren't many videos where snakes face off against Lions but this is one of them a massive python lunges at a lion cub but the Young Lion is agile and Maneuvers around the python looking for the best spot to strike they are caught in a fight to the death when the lion decides to engage a few more members of The Pride are arrive and attack the snake to assist their friend number nine python
versus dog I'm not sure how frequently stray or wild dogs meet pythons but this dog appears to be in danger in this video this python is wrapped its entire body around it's suffocating it the dog is temporarily released from the Python's clutches but only for a few seconds before the python reclaims it this Brave dog begins biting at the serpent incessantly until the python lets go of the dog who then manages to flee I honestly did not expect this outcome number eight black mamba versus rat this rat is completely unaware he's in a grave danger
and continues to move around the venomous snake even stepping on it while the snake waits for the perfect moment to strike once he strikes and the Venom takes effect the rat is promptly devoured when a snake notices a small rodent moving around it goes and Sur for a food when the snake detects the rodent is close by it enters the rodent's den and searches for it the snake slithers into the underground burrow of the rodent and grabs it rodents aren't even safe at home when they're mining their own business number seven python versus leopard when
a hunt fails a leopard returns home and calls her youngster but there is no response something isn't quite right in less than a second the leopard recognized is the Assassin an African rock python as she pursues her Cubs as salant the female leopard jeopardizes her own life the leopard is undeterred as the python hides among the Thorns her perseverance pays off in the end after the injured python moves the leopard is ready for the next round she waits until the python emerges from the cave but there isn't a brawl a built-in reflex forces the snake
to forego its well-earned meal when a python is under duress it regur itates its meal to shed excess weight and make a quick escape the leopard has abandoned her attack and discovered her dead Cub which the python had left behind the leopard Mourns her cub number six Anaconda this Anaconda is crushing a crocodile and there is no way for the crocodile to escape the snake is massive and has completely encircled the crocodile the crocodile is not small either this Anaconda packs a powerful punch the green Anaconda is known as the world's heaviest snake they can
grow to be 25 ft long and weigh more than 300 lb anacondas spend almost all their time in and around water to maintain their Mass because it is disguised to blend in with plant choked water this snake usually waits for prey to come to it snakes with eyes and nostrils on top of their heads can stay underwater for extended periods of time while waiting for prey on this flooded plane the capy Bara the world's largest rodent which can weigh more than 100 lb coexists with the Anaconda because aquatic plants account for a large portion of
the Capi Bar's diet they spend a lot of time near water making it an ideal Anaconda hunting habitat it can stalk underwater without being noticed by extending its head long enough to assess distance it's just sitting there doing nothing it strikes encircling the massive rodent with six rows of fangs there's no no way out of this predicament anacondas do not use Venom to kill their prey they suffocate their prey by preventing blood flow to the heart resulting in Cardiac Arrest when the heart stops beating they start eating their meal whole toes and all their jaws
elastic ligaments and flexible joints assist them in accomplishing this an anaconda lurks in a water hole ready to pounce on anything edible a few Birds flit about but is this what the anonda desires a Cayman swims by oblivious to the snake's presence the Caymans leap from the water before being ambushed but one is too slow and is swallowed by the snake number five snake versus mouse this snake must be in heaven his tank is full of white mice which he is devouring one by one this looks more like a scene from a horror film than
a feeding session the mice are terrified and they are all huddled together in one corner of the tank because they know what is going to happen to them sooner or later rats and mice are a tasty part of a snake's diet and this rat ran into the wrong snake on his way to work he had his lunchbox and his favorite work uniform on but the snake didn't seem to care this little guy was grabbed by a black mamba and swallowed for breakfast there was no need for raspberry jam or bread because the rat was so
young authorities issued an amber alert only to discover that the snake had already devoured the victim number four Anaconda enters pigpen this Anaconda approaches this sleeping Pig and easily snatches it the Pig thinks it's having a nightmare but the truth is it's being swallowed by a python this dead pig is being swallowed face first by this Anaconda at least the snake killed it before an anaconda enters a pig pen and devours a small Pig the pig doesn't move and it doesn't look like it's breathing so I'm assuming it's already dead this snake is going to
enjoy this meal number three python versus rabbit this adorable White Rabbit is the burmes Python's lunch and after missing its first strike the snake strikes again and kills the poor rabbit it must be expensive to constantly feed live rabbits to your pet snake this snake hasn't eaten in a month so I'm sure it'll be overjoy to taste this rabbit the rabbit is strangled killed and devoured head first in the early morning an African rock python coils around the feet of rabbit and crushes it to death this Burmese python strikes quickly and coils around this small
white rabbit it's time to feed the snake and what could be more delicious than a beautiful white bunny rabbit number two python versus King Cobra the Python and the king cobra are two of the world's largest and deadliest reptiles pythons are non-venomous restrictors whereas the king cobra is known for its lethal toxin furthermore pythons are frequently larger longer and have better camouflage whereas king cobras are far more agile throughout most of the fight it appears the Cobra will triumph over the python but the two snakes eventually part ways a python is tightly wrapped around the
king cobra and squeezing it the Cobra appears to be stuck and it appears it will require a miracle to free itself its head appears to be on the verge of explo floating this golden Cobra attempts to slay a python the battle is organized by two men who position the snake side by side so they can engage but the snakes don't seem interested in each other for some reason so the men just keep putting them close together until something happens number one python versus bat snakes rarely eat bats but this python isn't picky and will eat
anything I must say the bat in this video outperforms The Snake This Bat is also biting the snake what an unexpected turn of events I'm completely flabbergasted the snake believe it or not is repulsed by the bat and fleas the poor bat is exhausted and can barely drag itself out of there but the snake shockingly admits the feet and slithers away I swear I wasn't prepared for this how about you when given the opportunity this snake wasted no time in swallowing This Bat when you see the snake in action it appears that swallowing a bat
is more difficult than swallowing other animals for some reason the bat's wings I suppose get in the way but the Snake Still gets it done I can't believe how the bat was able to get away from the snake that was an incredible battle which one was your favorite why don't you let us know in the comments below well that's it for a countdown of the top 15 moments when huge snakes eat their prey that will make you cringe if you enjoyed this video please give us a like and let us know in the comments what
