Nine times out of ten, the owl comes out on top. This time the odds weren't on its side.
The owl is a highly skillful and proficient killer of snakes. But every once in a while, they miscalculate their attack, leaving them open to a body hug that literally chokes the life out of them.
A guide with Champion Ranch, located in Rochelle, Texas, spotted the following scene while out for a drive September 17. Thinking it was merely an owl, he decided to take a closer look. It was then he spotted the bullsnake.
Here's the footage of a snake coming out on top:
Although it's easy to root for the owl in this scenario, only the strong survive in nature. On this day, our feathered friend was the weak one.
Now, a video showing the bullsnake trying to swallow that owl would be something else to watch.
Nature. It's never pretty when it comes to survival.
