  • This extraordinary battle till death took place on my front lawn a while ago and although the quality it not great as I used a mobile phone to record it still gives one an idea what happens in nature. These things happen so unexpectedly and can be over before you've blinked I didn't have time to get a camera. Thanks for watching.

    If I am the cobra, I find the nearest hole and crawled into it to hide. On open ground, mongoose always have the advantage when the fight drags on as the mongoose will always make many bites on the snake's body first to make it tired and disoriented before going for the coup d e'tat by biting the snake''s neck and then it's game over.
