I haven't seen her get one, but the 8+ foot King Snake in my backyard eats snakes and rats and mice (from the "bumps" in her!). She's my natural "pest control"! 20 years ago, I had a King snake that was over 12 feet long , and scared a telephone lineman half-to-death when he saw her from up on a pole! I HEAR some big barn owls (dawn and dusk), but I can't spot them out-back. Yeah, I love critters...

Take a good look at the rattle segments. Only a few with each one slightly larger than the one behind. Shows the snake is young, still growing between each shed cycle. I doubt that snake is much older than one year old. Good side view of rattle around the 1:40 mark. Mature snakes have rattle segments that vary little in size between each segment. That’s what I based my opinion on.

The rattlesnake is not injured prior to the indigo's attack. It's odd body posture is due to a defense mechanism rattlesnakes use against Indigos and kingsnakes called "body bridging". They lift the middle of their body off the ground and keep their head low to the ground in attempt to confirm their attacker.

I suppose the rattler was already injured by the time filming started, but I have read that some venomous snakes (cottonmouths, I think) will perform "body blows" against king snakes to drive them away. They instinctively know their venom is useless and it does little good to bite in defense. VERY interesting video!

Now I know why the diamondback rattlesnake tried so hard to retreat, i think it's one sick rattlesnake, very weak and wasn't able to 'defend' itself against the inglo snake that made a courageous and determined stride against the helpless rattlesnake. `And the minute one single bite, the rattlesnake died instantly. Usually there would be a battle, but I think that the rattlesnake was definitely very sick.

People need to stop complaining about the rattlesnake being injured prior to the footage being taken. Indigos of this size make quick work of rattlesnakes and this Indigo likely beat up the rattlesnake prior to this glorious footage or the rattlesnake instinctively knew it was outmatched; sort of like a Tyson opponent in the early 80's; it was over before the first bell rang. This is the best footage to date on an Indigo walloping a rattlesnake. Great job.

@rickdavis2235
@rickdavis2235 5 лет назад
M00nsplitter There are quite a few animals that are resistant or immune to venom. Indigos aren't immune but have a fair amount of resistance to the venom. There are species of rats, like the woodrat, that are totally immune to venom. Honey-badgers are another one.
@stevenhall8964
@stevenhall8964 2 года назад
Its amazing that its immune to such a wide variety of pit viper venoms since even Rattlers of the same species can have a different type of venom depending on the location they're found in, and Indigo snakes (as well as Kingsnakes) appear to be immune or at least semi immune to Coral Smake venom as well. Coral Snakes are Elapida related to cobras and not Pit Vipers like every other venomous snake species found in the Americas!

I think the theory is that the rattler is keeping its head area low as that is it's vulnerable area. Like it knows it can't kill the indigo, but it's trying to prevent the indigo from getting to its head/neck, cuz after that it's lights out. As you see as soon as the indigo coaxs the rattler to expose its head with a strike.

About two years later, he was laying on top of one of shrubs soaking in the sun. By that time, he was about 6 feet long! It makes me feel good that they will kill venomous snakes. I'm in Florida and we have Eastern Diamondbacks and Pigmy Rattlers along with Cottonmouth and Copperheads. That's not to even mention the pythons we have in Florida!

We had them for years and although they'd hang around on our porch we never saw their teeth and I was always picking them up they got so used to me that they did not care. I actually believed they enjoyed being handled they made no attempt at all to "get away". they're absolutely beautiful and especially after they've just molted.

He is not injured that is viper body language showing fear. He didn't rattle so that he'd hopefully be more quiet. Also indigos and other snakes that eat other snakes do for the head so the rattlesnake kept his head low to keep from getting his spine broken. Common misconception for injury👌

Rattler had its opportunity to be the agressor when it was coiled for strike better earlier. Often see the agressor snake that slides over its opponents neck has the advantage as it lifts to strike it weighs heavily on it and reduces its ability to get a strike in a more fragile area.

Chance to be aggressive? And do what exactly?? All they have is their venomous strike...but if the venom is useless, they have nothing to bring with that aggression. They're fucked essentially. Right??

I think it is very interesting how the Rattler was on the retreat from the beginning. How he keeps his head low to the ground and is always retreating. The natural reaction of a rattle snake is to coil up head held high for striking . I think he knew he had met his death before the fight ever started.

Notice how the Rattlesnake kept its head low when backing off from the Indigo snake? I've only seen this behavior when trying to back away from Indigo and Kingsnakes, because if they held their head up high in the typical S shape strike pose, it would actually present its attacker with a clearer easier shot to its head because it would stand out more being darker on a lighter background and in flat country such as desert or prairie it would stand out even more held high as it would potentially have the sky for a back drop, whereas by trying to keep it lower to the ground it makes it harder for its foes to distinguish from the grasses and rocks and plants and it's own body and when defending against Indigo or Kingsnakes they try to protect their heads first and foremost and it is easier to jump backwards throwing coils of it's own body on top of its head to potentially deflect any bites away from the head and into the ground or the middle of the body which does the attacker no good since it has to swallow it head first. Anything else that attacks a Rattlesnake finds the snake with its head held high in an S shape pattern in its neck ready to strike out quickly from that position, hissing at the same time usually, I've even seen Northern Pacific Rattlesnakes do this and not even rattle!!!

The Rattle Snake was obviously trying to use its tail as a decoy and holding its head low to feint as a tail...hoping to get the first strike in and use its venom. It worked, he got a good strike, but the Indigo's natural tolerance to venom made this a lost cause from the start.
@Ura.rosskiye_semya

It was probably to not let it have a clear shot on its head because I don’t think it having its head high because the colors in the background would change anything considering they are dichromates and also can see the heat

They know that biting a snake such as an indigo or kingsnake that is resistant to their venom is a last ditch effort.
