Cat versus Snake: We’ve talked about and seen some of the most incredible and breathtaking hunting movies of cats and snakes. Both animals are skilled hunters, and seeing them in action is a visual treat. Both are masters of ambush, patience, and speed, and they use these qualities to their advantage when hunting. But every now and then, these two beautiful and magnificent hunters come face to face.

This is demonstrated in the viral video that we are sharing with you.

The video shows a snake creeping up on a cat, its jaws wide open, and it gets quite close to the cat’s face. The snake does it quickly, and it appears that the snake will pursue the cat. But, the cat uses its legendary slap-swipe to bring the snake down.

Strange and Terrifying @Artsandcultr tweeted the video with the caption, “The average cat’s reaction time is approximately 20-70 milliseconds, which is faster than the average snake’s reaction time, 44-70 milliseconds.”

Take a look at the video:

Sharing some interesting cat facts. Cats can jump up to six times their height because they have powerful leg muscles that propel them into the air. Cats are born with 18 toes, five on each of their front paws and four on their hind paws.

Now for some interesting snake facts. Snakes smell using their tongues, which is why they have their tongues out most of the time. Snakes are not always poisonous. The black mamba is the fastest snake, reaching speeds of up to 12 miles per hour.
