The viral video was reportedly shot from the runway of Pune airport.
While it is common to see wild animals fighting due to their age-old rivalry, snake and mongoose are one of the oldest enemies. Their constant enmity can be seen whenever the two animals meet. However, it is said that mongooses have won their fights against snakes. Mongooses are fierce in their own way and boldly attack even highly venomous snakes like king cobras. One such video was posted on social media showing a deadly fight between a snake and some mongooses.
What is shocking, however, is that the fight is taking place in the middle of the airport premises. The video, shared on the X-handle of Ghar Ke Kalesh, was reportedly shot on the runway of Pune airport. In the video, a mongoose can be seen fighting with the snake, which escalates into a violent confrontation. Two more mongooses join the fight, leaving the snake alone.
When the animals started attacking the snake, the reptile could be seen trying to escape to save its life. However, it remains unclear whether the snake was killed or whether it managed to flee the attack.
The video of the snake and the mongoose is being shared widely on the internet, sparking curiosity and amusement among users. One user quipped: “Competition between IndiGo and Spicejet crew.”

Highlighting the strangest incidents in Bihar, one user added, “A bridge in the middle of a field, a teacher sleeping in the classroom while kids fan her, and now mongooses and snakes fighting in the middle of the airport.”

Some users even claimed that the snake and the mongoose were not fighting, but playing. Previously, another fight video from the wild had caused a stir.
Similarly, a snake and a mongoose were seen fighting in a small pothole. While the snake tried to attack its enemy with an extended hook, the mongoose eventually fought back and even grabbed it by the head with both hands.
