Still Waters Posted July 30, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Scott Adams from Clifton, Arizona, US was on his way to go fishing with a friend when the two came across a hawk struggling to get free from the grip of a bull snake. Mr Adams stopped to unwrap the snake from the hawk while his friend recorded it on video. http://www.telegraph...-onlookers.html Well done! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundew Posted July 30, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Eh, it cuts both ways, I saw a Red-tailed Hawk pluck a Black Racer out of the thatch of a Washingtonia palm. I have to wonder if the hawk here tried to attack the snake and got more than it bargained for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesjr191 Posted July 30, 2014 #4 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I say he should have left them be. snakes are very useful animals and need to eat just as badly as the hawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakari Posted July 30, 2014 #5 Share Posted July 30, 2014 One of the very few times a local thing posted. This was on my facebook, it is from the small town I work in. Where a mine is. Surprised, because there is nothing in Clifton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mabon Posted July 30, 2014 #6 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Good news for the hawk! I doubt the snake could have eaten it anyway. They both get a chance to fight another day. Mabon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakari Posted July 30, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I say he should have left them be. snakes are very useful animals and need to eat just as badly as the hawk. The snake was defending itself. Thee is no way it could have eaten that Hawk. The Hawk most likely grabbed it for lunch ( it was a young Hawk ), and the snake was able to wrap itself around it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
