Just a little something to end the weekend….
Although roosters come in many sizes, shapes, and colors, if there is one thing that all roosters have in common, it’s a very strong drive to protect their flock from potential predators. That strong protective drive was captured on video and shows a rooster protecting his flock from a lethal king cobra snake in Andhra Pradesh, India.
In the video, the rooster seems to herd the snake away from the rest of the flock in a protective manner. In a fierce and fast battle of speed and reflexes, the rooster manages to weaken the large cobra by landing a series of fierce pecks. The speedy rooster darts out of range each time he manages to land pecks, so agile and fast that the cobra could not land a single bite. And that’s important because even a single cobra bite would have been deadly. How deadly? The venom from a cobra bite is enough to kill 20 people, according to National Geographic.
Be Well…Be Safe….
It’s only a still photo for me not video, but I get the idea, chuq. Angry roosters can be a force to be reckoned with. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
