A video of an intense battle between three mongooses and a snake at the Patna airport runway has gone viral on social media. The video of the deadly fight, which went viral on social media, showed three mongooses taking on a snake besides the runway.
The video begins with a snake spreading its fangs to protect itself from a mongoose. Later, two more mongooses join in and start attacking the reptile from all sides. Undeterred, the snake lifts its head in defence, but the mongooses persist in their assault as the confrontation unfolds.
