Slither Out of Here! Squirrel Protects Its Home, Attacks Viper
16:00 GMT 04.10.2018 (Updated: 12:18 GMT 06.08.2022) This video from California shows a little squirrel approaching a snake and then suddenly attacking it. The reasons behind this reckless assault are unclear – it’s possible that the scaled predator came too close to the brave animal's home, so it had to act, appearing to be more akin to a mongoose than an average squirrel.
After a few minutes of dramatic and dangerous clashes, the reptile had to retreat, as the squirrel pressed it too hard, even trying to bite the snake's tail. What irony indeed!
