What happens if two invertebrate animals prey on one another? Especially these two animals are very different, namely snakes and centipedes.

A snake looks wrestling with a giant centipede. However, the venomous animal is like a strategy. Because, the animal was even able to wrap and swallow his body.
"This animal is pretty clever because the snake is laying its eggs, which is the most vulnerable condition for a snake," he added.

In order for the opponent to remain under control, the centipede grips the body of the snake and stabs it with a venomous claw called forcipules - a special binding weapon that only the centipede has.

The team of biologists did not take steps to stop the fight. However, they only take a lot of photographs that help the research team to identify the type of centipede.

After observing, the team of experts determined that the centipede was Scolopendra dawydoffi - an aggressive, large, aggressive species found in Southeast Asia.

Meanwhile, the snake was identified as a black triangle-headed type or Sibynophis triangularis.

After the fight, the female snake was helpless. "The Centipede is using the right situation, because it is laying its eggs, the snake can not leave the child," the research team said.
