🔥 Snakes snatch fish mid-Leap, Grizzly style !
In India's countryside, a rare hunting strategy was captured on film. Snakes lining up along a stream ledge to catch fish as they leapt out of the water.
Wildlife enthusiast Vijith Bhargav (drone_pilot_vb on instagram) came across this scene while trying to photograph a Pied Kingfisher over the water, in Anantpur in the state of Andhra Pradesh. He noticed about 20 snakes near a ledge in the stream.
On zooming in and shooting slow motion, he realised they were waiting for the fish to ascend so that they could catch them mid-leap.
