Unsuccessful attack on prey, venomous snake surrenders to giant centipede

Deliberately attacking the giant centipede, the venomous snake paid dearly for its wrong decision .

In the clip, a venomous snake is attacking a giant centipede. However, the snake's venom not only fails to kill its prey, but is also bitten by the centipede. In too much pain, the snake opens its mouth wide and bites back, forcing the centipede to run away.

Instead of giving up on its prey, the snake launched another attack, but the centipede fought back. Thanks to its sharp teeth and many legs, the centipede easily held its opponent and injected venom into the snake. Then, it slowly enjoyed its sumptuous feast.

This deadly centipede can hunt prey up to 15 times larger than itself thanks to its convulsive venom.

The snake's venom not only failed to kill its prey, but was also bitten by the centipede.

Known as Spooky Toxin, the venom of the red-headed centipede wreaks havoc on the cardiovascular, respiratory, and nervous systems of its prey.

"Most animals don't want to touch centipedes," Terence Farrell, a biology professor at Stetson University in Florida, told National Geographic. "They have sharp fangs that deliver very painful bites . "
