It wasn't a scene we get to see very often. The Internet has no dearth of videos showing two or more animals fighting it out for supremacy, but a not-so-usual face-off of a snake and a scorpion is currently going viral on social media.
Shared on Instagram, the short clip features a cobra lounging in what appears to be a small concrete structure. A scorpion is also seen making its way into the snake's territory. The cobra upon noticing the intruder goes on alert mode. The tension builds as the scorpion inches closer to the snake, with its hood raised — a clear sign of discomfort and readiness to defend itself.
Just as the two creatures come close to each other, the video abruptly cuts off, leaving viewers hanging and speculating about the outcome of this intense standoff. The details about the video's location or the time are not known.
