A giant snake preys on a man and gets him down a hole
Watan-A video clip has spread widely on social media platforms showing a giant snake preying on a human in an incredible way and dragging him into a hole while his friends were unable to get him out.
Some did not believe that the video was real and confirmed that it was an act, but the scene remains terrifying in any case and alarming, and sparked a wide circulation on platforms and questions about its truth.
Years ago, a scary clip of a snake allegedly swallowing a man went viral in Indonesia, similar to hysterical horror movies.
Lurking snakes
Dr. Sasha Herbert, who works in the toxic pets unit at the University of Melbourne (Melbourne), says that the mysterious incident that took place is an extreme example of the collision of predators with humans.
She adds that these snakes are lurking predators, not hunters, that is, they lie in wait for their meal.
In Southeast Asia, these snakes feed on anything, from mice to deer, along with medium-sized mammals in between.
Mostly these snakes hunt from the surface of the earth, becoming too heavy to climb trees.
Frightening predation incidents in Indonesia
In 2022, sources talked about a woman being devoured by a 7-meter snake in Indonesia as well.
In 2018, a woman was found swallowed by a giant python on Mona Island, off the coast of Indonesia’s greater Sulawesi island.
This came after the woman disappeared in the garden of her house located below a rocky cliff, an area teeming with caves where snakes live.
