A tourist camera recorded an incredible sight of a cobra eating a puff adder in the middle of the road while it is still alive.
A nature enthusiast and engineer named Klaus Bohmer posted a video of this unusual encounter with LatestSightings.com. During Klaus’s safari to the magnificent Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park in South Africa, this incredible sighting took place.
“We were on our way back to camp in the late afternoon, navigating the dusty roads of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. We were driving between Mata Mata and Twee Rivieren. The scenery was typical for the area: desert sand and trees as far as you looked.”
“It had been an uneventful drive up to this point. However, as luck would have it, another car was stopped. They were pointing excitedly at something on the road. That’s when we saw something we would most certainly have missed, two snakes! Their colors blended in with the color of the road, making it very unlikely for us to have spotted on our own.”

Everyone was in utter awe as awe-inspiring sights unfurled as they got closer. I witnessed a snake eating another right there. A strange and unusual phenomenon that I had never witnessed before. I still think of it as a wholly remarkable event.
Cobras are recognized for their distinct fondness for other snakes as food, as the one Klaus saw. These highly adaptable predators are top predators because they have the poisonous power and agility to take on and eat different snake species.
