A reptile-addict got more than he bargained for when an anaconda snake he was playing with decided to strike back. In a video shared on Instagram, the man can be seen lifting an enormous snake from Amazon in his arms. The video has been shared by Nick, who is an animal and reptile addict. In the video, Nick is seen wearing a cowboy hat and blue t-shirt, and holding an anaconda, while it is wrapped around both his hands. As he handles the reptile, the snake first attacks his shirt and then bites his arm. The agitated snake lunges forward and again aims at his t-shirt but Nick ducks a little bit. The snake proceeds to bite his arm again, leaving Nick in pain. Though he is seen yelling, Nick tells viewers that the anaconda is non-venomous.
According to his Instagram profile, nickthewrangler is an animal and reptile addict, and his page is filled with videos of him handling different species of snakes. His bio reads, "To inspire and be a voice for our wild animals. Be Afraid And Do It Anyway! DON'T STOP WRANGLING!" The caption of the video reads, "Cowboying it up with a naughty ANACONDA!"
