Passersby captured the impressive moment when a king cobra and a python entwined to “death” by the roadside in Nakhon Si Thammarat.
According to eyewitnesses, the two predators clashed in the bushes before rushing out. The sudden appearance of the python-snake pair made passersby shocked and extremely panicked.

These incredible images show the python trying to use its stocky body to wrap around the cobra and intend to squeeze its opponent to death. On the other side, the king cobra opens its mouth wide and sticks its fangs into the enemy’s neck.

The python kills by squeezing the “victim” to death, while the cobra attacks the python’s neck to inject its deadly venom.
