00:06 The images of pythons hunting have become a terrifying obsession of many animals,
00:11 even humans. They are one of the largest snakes on the earth and they will
00:16 eat anything that can be swallowed, including impalas. But today, python did not enjoy the
00:23 full meal by the humans. Rob, so who is that robber? Let's watch the whole video together.
00:31 [Music]
00:39 The python attacked the impala and was robbed by a wild dog.
00:44 [Music]
00:55 Impala is a favorite target of many large African predators such as lions,
00:59 hyenas, cheetahs. However, not all predators can swallow their prey as quickly as rock pythons.
01:07 [Music]
01:17 A rock python is prowling and assessing the prey in front of it. And this ill-fated impala was
01:23 in the sights of the predator. It moved without making a sound.
01:28 [Music]
01:34 Like other beasts, rock pythons hunt by hiding to stalk their prey.
01:38 They can hang themselves on trees, hide under forest leaves, and their favorite way to hide
01:44 is diving into natural lakes because all animals need to drink water.
01:49 [Music]
02:06 Immediately, the python attacked the prey and used its body to squeeze it to kill it.
02:11 A terrifying sight when the python wrapped itself around the impala while the prey was equally large.
02:19 However, it cannot resist the grip of this predator and is helpless and desperately waiting for death.
02:25 [Music]
02:34 The rock python's way of killing prey is by squeezing the prey to death.
02:38 With each adult python able to generate 7.8 pounds,
02:45 which is 3.5 kilograms of pressure per square inch.
02:49 So, the prey will have broken bones if attacked by this predator.
02:56 [Music]
03:08 There are no strong jaw muscles to chew, but the giant rock python is capable of swallowing prey.
03:15 To do this after pouncing on a prey with an extremely fast bite, the rock python must
03:23 curl around the prey and use super strong muscle bundles of its body to squeeze and
03:30 crush the prey's bones before swallowing.
03:36 Thought to have a full meal, but the rock python lost its prey to a pack of sly wild dogs.
03:42 The wild dogs, when they smell the impala's smell, they come together and attack the rock python to
03:52 steal prey. In large numbers, wild dogs do not seem to be afraid of any species.
04:01 Based on their numerical superiority, the wild dogs attacked the rock python
04:06 on many directions and successfully chased it away and took its prey.
04:11 After the rock python left, the wild dogs tore the prey and ate it.
04:22 [Music]
04:32 Fresh meat is always the favorite of all predators, so the wild dog did not stay long.
04:37 They rushed to eat the impala alive and enjoy the hearty meal they
04:43 have just stolen from the rock python.
04:50 With good eyesight and amazing endurance, wild dogs can chase prey continuously for
04:56 8 kilometers and the fastest possible speed is up to 6 kilometers per hour.
05:01 So, in terms of speed and endurance, the air-lined antelope can't match the wild dog.
05:08 As a result of the chase, the air-lined antelope became a hearty meal for the wild dogs.
05:18 Their extremely strong jaws make it easy for them to tear their prey.
05:23 They begin to tear soft parts like the belly and eat first and then the rest.
05:28 Usually, most of the food of wild dogs comes from hunting. According to them,
05:39 their hunting success rate is up to 80 percent, the tallest of the predators.
05:45 So, it is rare for them to take the prey of other species.
05:49 Watch how wild dogs hunt to see the power of this animal.
06:04 So,
06:05 wild dogs are also very wise. They often rarely attack the whole pack
06:20 but often attack those that are alone or weak.
06:29 So,
06:37 wild nature has always witnessed fierce battles and survival stories of countless animals.
06:51 And the story tragedy always comes to the herbivores. The weak, Impala is a typical
07:12 character who, although suffering to survive, because they are often in the sight of violent
07:18 predators.
