In 2011, Dick Mulder, the Dutch, owner of the cat killed the snake Four stripes, captured the moment the snake Whip crawled out of the belly Four stripes after he dumped it from the garden in the Greek island of Corfu.

"My wife, who was not interested in the scene of a dead snake lying on the porch, cried that the snake was not dead, she saw it moving," Mulder said. "I assure her that the snake is dead," Mulder recalled, until he looked closer.

"I went to get the camera, when I came back, I saw the head of a smaller snake," he said. The little snake finally escaped from the big belly and crawled to the natural world, seemingly unharmed.

According to National Geographic, Andrew Gray, a reptile expert at the Manchester Museum in England, was the first to post this rare blog event in January.

Gray said he had only known of one case of snakes escaping after being eaten by another. The child was eaten by meat that had wriggled out from the wound of the meat-eating child after being shot by the hunter.

It is also unusual to escape from the snake's mouth. Snakes often swallow their prey first, then turn to other parts one after another.

Therefore, the Whip snake may have turned the U in the solid belly. Gray guessed, surely the Whip snake must be "small and fast enough to be able to do that."

However, how can a snake survive in another animal's body? According to Gray, the only answer was that the big snake had just swallowed the baby snake just before being attacked by the cat. If not, the digestive juices of a large animal will kill her, or it will die from suffocation or crushing.

In addition, to add to the element of luck. Four-striped snake is Europe's largest indigenous snake without venom. And the Whip snake must also be grateful to the cat who accidentally saved his life.
