An intense encounter between an eagle, a deadly snake, and a leopard in some incredibly intense footage recently shared online.
According to park rangers, the brown snake eagle likely attacked first, hoping to capture the black mamba. The snake then probably latched on to the eagle, and clearly managed to hold on.
Then the leopards took notice…

The video was first shared on the Facebook page of the Nkorho Bush Lodge, based in the Sabi Sands, which is adjacent to Kruger National Park, South Africa. They wrote that the leopard and her cub escaped unharmed.
A longer video was later shared online. Watch:
