Snakes are a very mysterious species to us, and people often respect and fear them. Whether in mythological stories in our country or other countries, snakes are given a kind of divine power, both good and evil. And when we encounter it in the wild, many people will avoid it, mostly because they fear its fatal toxicity. From the ancient times to the Titan python , which dominated the time, to the now becoming a poisonous snake that masters poison. The snake has lived on the earth for tens of millions of years, far earlier than us humans. However, animals are actually mutually rebellious. A poisonous snake may use venom to kill the king of the forest - the tiger, and will be eaten by natural enemies who are far weaker than the tiger. Today we will take a look at the natural enemies of snakes.

No. 10: Hedgehog

Hedgehog

Maybe you won’t think that such a cute hedgehog can be the natural enemy of snakes? Don't underestimate the ability of the hedgehog. The adult hedgehog weighs up to 2.5 kg. It is fat and short, has sharp claws, and has spines on the back and sides, and has hair on the head, tail and ventral surface. When frightened, its head bent toward its ventral surface, curled up in a ball, rolled up like a thorn ball, covering its head and limbs, and thorns erected all over its body to protect itself. Hedgehogs who survive freely in the wild will remove pupae, rats and snakes for parks, gardens, and yards without paying a salary. Especially the young snake, which is the favorite of hedgehogs.

ninth: big toad

big toad, that is, a relatively large type of toad, amphibians, like to eat ants, mosquitoes, snails, locusts, etc. When it lies out at night, snakes usually eat it, but sometimes it can also eat snakes, especially small snakes, which are very easy for it to eat.

Eighth: Snake Eagle

Snake Eagle

Snake Eagle 61~73 cm in total length, large and medium-sized eagle. Living in the mountains and dense forests, I like to move around the forest and forest edges, hovering and flying in the sky, making roars like roars. It feeds on snakes, frogs, lizards, etc., and also eats rats, birds, crabs and other crustaceans.

No. 7: mongoose

mongoose

mongoose

mongoose is also known as mongoose . It has a head and tail length of 42-60 cm. It is a small mammal. They are very socialized animals. They live in communities that can reach forty. They are good at digging holes and rest at night and activities during the day. Meerks mainly feed on insects, but they also eat lizards, snakes, spiders, plants, eggs and small mammals. Just like other mongooses, mongooses develop a lot of venomous immunity, which allows them to eat scorpions (including stings) and some snakes without causing discomfort, poisoning or death.

6: Crocodile, it generally attacks mammals as food. But sometimes I won't let it go when I encounter a snake, especially snakes that are not very big. Because if the crocodile is not big, it will be easily eaten.

Fifth: King Cobra . In fact, it does not belong to the cobra, but an independent glasses King Snake genus . Since it can be called king, it means it is more fierce and cruel than Cobra, and it has a more agile reaction and is more toxic. It usually feeds on other snakes, including pythons of similar size, and even like king cobras.

Fourth: Eagle

Eagle is majestic and has a fierce temperament. Zoologically, it is called a carnivorous raptor. The mouth is curved and sharp, the feet have hooks and claws, and they are fierce in nature. Food includes small mammals, reptiles, other birds and fish, and they are active during the day. Basically all eagles prey on snakes. Although they are smaller in size than eagles, eagles mainly prey on small mammals, and eagles are more professional when eating snakes.

3: Flathead Brother

Honey Badger (flathead Brother) has been included as the "most fearless animal in the world" Guinness World Records for several years. Its powerful deeds are widely known. It dares to fight against African lions, fight hyenas and leopards alone, and eat snakes like spicy strips. I won’t say much about this, I am firmly ranked third.

Second: Snake melon

If anyone in the animal world who can kill snakes is more powerful than the great "flat-headed brother", then it is only snake melon, because although flat-headed brother has strong anti-snake venom. However, once you are bitten by a poisonous snake, you still need to rest for several hours. However, the mongoose is even more powerful, basically immune to snake venom, and it seems to be a natural enemy of snakes. Even if you are full, you will have to dry the poisonous snake to death with your belly. I have to say that although this "Monkey Brother" is not as brave as the "flat-headed Brother", he is probably better at subduing snakes.

first: human

first, human. When humans work, snakes often kill or catch them and eat them. For humans, there is nothing to eat.
