Animals

A photographer in India has captured the rare moment a heron and a snake fought in a lake over a fish dinner.

The determined bird managed to catch a fish from a lake in Telangana, India with its long beak and then tried to pull its lunch out of the water.


Little did she know, however, that a hungry snake already had the poor fish in its mouth, and she wasn’t about to give up a meal without a fight. A lot of splashing was to follow.

This is one heavy fish! The heron gets more than she bargained for when she grabbed the fish that the snake had apparently begun to eat…before they pulled it out of the water.

Seekers, keepers: the snake was determined to withhold its food and sank its fangs deep into the fish’s body for as long as it could.

A fierce tug-of-war ensued with neither party ready to drop the prized catch. Amateur photographer Sunny Inaganti captured these stunning images in the southern Indian state of Telangana.

Missing: The remains of the fish are clearly visible languishing in the heron’s throat, but more importantly for the bird, it got a much-needed meal.

Gray herons can be found in temperate Europe and Asia and also in parts of Africa. The species’ diet consists of fish, amphibians, small mammals, insects, and sometimes even snakes, which it catches in shallow water with its long bill.

This heron was brave in taking on the snake which could have been poisonous due to its location in South India where many poisonous snakes lurk. However, it is not clear which species it was from the photos. It seems this heron doesn’t like snakes, but if it did, the bird could have had two meals in one!
