00:03we've all witnessed fights between predators and prey but sometimes massive altercations break out
00:09between two predators it could be because of territorial disagreements or simply over food
00:14have you ever seen a cheetah and leopard fight how about a lion and tiger facing off if you
00:20haven't then strap in for a glorious ride today we will show you 19 moments when predators fought
00:26against each other without further delay let's begin number 19 monitor lizard versus snake monitor
00:38lizards and snakes have a tense relationship and they frequently eat each other the venomous
00:43rattlesnakes often scares away predators with its rattle but when a monitor lizard comes after it
00:49there's very little the rattlesnake can do to save itself as you can see the monitor lizard swallows
00:54the snake down and doesn't seem the least bit worried about getting bit pythons are strong
00:59opponents for monitor lizards these serpents have the capacity to choke the lizard's neck and swallow
01:04it whole it seems that the python wants to do just that here too but its opponent is able to
01:10escape
01:11being constricted now the snake is in trouble and the monitor lizard looks like it's winning this fight
01:16a lizard attacks a gopher snake in this video to ward off predators the serpent makes a rattlesnake
01:22like sound this monitor lizard is not bothered and tries to attack it despite its excellent hunting
01:28abilities the gopher snake tries to strike but the monitor bites the snake's tail and slowly swallows
01:34it down in this next video the monitor lizard targets yet another python what's interesting is
01:40that almost every time they go for the head of the python not the tail the lizards must be aware
01:46that these serpents have no venom the lizard quickly crushes the snake's head number 18 jaguar versus
01:52caiman caimans are close cousins of alligators they too have a strong bite force but are smaller this
01:59small size sometimes makes them vulnerable to fatal attacks by jaguars in this clip a jaguar observes a
02:05giant caiman swimming in the lake it dives into the water and catches the enormous caiman with its
02:10powerful jaws for a flawless kill the caiman is unable to retaliate its powerful jaws appear to
02:16be useless here soon the big cat disappears with its meal in the next video a jaguar swims into
02:23caiman infested water in search of food the caiman tries to hide underwater but the big cat spots it
02:29soon enough the jaguar bites the prey's neck paralyzing it and stopping it from struggling the caiman has no
02:35chance of fighting back or fleeing in this next video a jaguar dives underneath the lake to catch
02:40a caiman the first time around the big cat fails and comes up empty-handed but the second time's
02:46the charm the jaguar grabs the caiman from the back and then swiftly drags it on the banks for a
02:52hearty
02:52meal a jaguar watches a caiman swim in the waters this jaguar aims to kill the caiman quickly using a
02:59strong bite on the neck after the sudden jump into the waters it takes the big cat just a few
03:04seconds to
03:04fish out its prey then the predator climbs back up to safety to enjoy its fresh meal number 17 crocodile
03:12versus lion lions and crocodiles have different styles of hunting their prey while both are
03:18accomplished hunters crocodiles have the upper hand in water lions dominate on land two lions cross a
03:25shallow part of the river but they do not know what's lurking just underneath the surface as the two
03:30brothers swim to the other side a crocodile attacks them one of the lions disappears underneath the
03:35water's surface this altercation ends without a tragedy as both the lions escape without serious
03:41injuries in this next one the crocodile is out of its elements when it attacks five lions the crocodile
03:48and try to attack it from different angles the croc snaps its jaw a couple of times giving these lions
03:54a fright but the big cats remain relentless they force the crocodile to finally return to the water and
04:00save its hide the lions surround the crocodile and try to attack it from different angles the lions are
04:06visibly uncomfortable in this situation and don't really want to engage in a fight the male lion does
04:12try to defend itself but the croc's threatening posture quickly makes him rethink his actions this pride
04:18in particular has no intention of starting a fight with the crocodile they'd leave it alone soon enough
04:25number 16 leopard versus hyenas hyenas are accomplished predators but have a habit of stealing
04:31food from others such as leopards this results in frequent clashes between the two in this video
04:37even after a successful kill a leopard needs to protect its meal from the hyenas the leopard puts in a
04:43last-ditch effort as you move slowly towards the food we don't know what its plan was here
04:48but as soon as he gets close the hyenas chase it away looks like this cat's about to spend the
04:53night hungry in the next video a leopard makes a kill bringing down an impala all on its own
04:58but before the big cat can finish the job a hyena rushes in from nowhere and tries to steal the
05:04food
05:04as the two predators fight the captured impala attempts to escape seeing all of this the leopard
05:10panics and flees but the hyena miraculously captures the impala again soon the hyena is tearing
05:16the impala's flesh apart while it is still alive and kicking while the leopard may lose its food to
05:22a hyena these cats aren't ready to sacrifice their children to the vicious scavengers in this clip a
05:27leopard is playing with its cub after some time the cub goes off to play on its own while the
05:33adult
05:33leopard sits nearby suddenly it notices a hyena attacking the cup the leopard jumps into action and
05:39immediately pounces on the hyena it bites and harasses the attacker by the end of the clip the hyena is
05:45nowhere to be found number 15 king cobra versus other snakes king cobras are unique not only because
05:53of their venom but also because of their capacity to kill and devour other snakes king cobras have
05:59perfected the art of chasing down and paralyzing other snakes with their poison a rat snake is looking
06:04for food in the woods a colossal king cobra is likewise on the prowl for prey the unfortunate rat snake
06:11is
06:11completely unaware of the danger of lurking nearby the king cobra strikes the rat snake with its
06:16neurotoxic venom the rat snake can't move or fight back after this allowing the cobra to gulp it down
06:22whole a baby king cobra goes out hunting for the first time in this video although inexperienced it's
06:28still one of the most venomous snakes in the world its target today is an olive rat snake the cobra
06:33paralyzes the smaller snake with its neurotoxin then slowly and methodically the king cobra begins
06:39swallowing the other snake number 14. ants versus praying mantis praying mantis are deadly creatures
06:47that use camouflage to hunt but when faced with an army of vicious ants these techniques do not always
06:52work for the praying mantis ants are swarming into a spot where a praying mantis is lying in wait
06:58despite being camouflaged the army of ants attacks the mantis from all sides the praying mantis fights
07:04back and chops off an ant from the front more ants arrive soon and surrounded on all sides next the
07:10ants shred the mantis into pieces this praying mantis walks into a colony of ants the ants are in
07:16no mood to allow the mantis to walk scot-free they attack it from all sides biting it repeatedly the
07:22mantis collapses and tries to fight back but the odds aren't in its favor the ants rip the mantis apart
07:28and feed on it number 13 jaguar versus jaguar jaguars don't just fight with other animals sometimes these
07:37fights happen between two of their own kind the fight can be for territory mates or food here one of
07:43the jaguars challenges the other to become the new leader of the pack seeing the threat the leader
07:49attacks the challenger first the other jaguar remains unfazed after a fierce fight the older jaguar surrenders
07:56he realizes that the young blood is stronger and so the challenger wins the next video shows two
08:02jaguars walking along the river's edge together then one of the cats starts to attack the other one
08:07it pounces on the other big cat a few slaps later the attacked jaguar decides it's had enough and jumps
08:14into the water to escape number 12 cheetah versus leopard cheetahs and leopards might be close cousins yet
08:22they are deadly enemies as they compete for the same food some of these fights can also be territorial
08:27in nature a leopard stalks a cheetah and her cub in this clip this is generally a tactic of removing
08:34future competition while they are young and defenseless the leopard attacks the cub and injures
08:39it before the cheetah mother can come to its rescue the baby cheetah is wounded badly and can't even get
08:45up and walk soon the leopard returns to finish what it started the cheetah mother looks on from a distance
08:50as the leopard rips up her cup well here's another video where a cheetah goes head to head with a
08:55leopard but this time around the outcome is absolutely different instead of the leopard dominating the
09:01fight and chasing the cheetah away it's the other way around while a leopard can do a lot of things
09:06it cannot outrun the fastest land animal number 11 lions versus hyenas lions and hyenas often clash in the
09:15wild over food a pack of hyenas can hold its own against a couple of lions but when a pride
09:20of lions
09:21attacks things can go the other way the real strength of hyenas is that they always hunt together
09:26as a pack sticking together has its benefits as this video shows a group of hyenas surround a lone lion
09:33obviously the lion has separated from his pride somehow the hyenas are about to take advantage of
09:38the situation they start attacking the male lion even as the big cat fights back just then another male
09:44lion appears in the nick of time even 20 hyenas can't hope to win against two adult male lions
09:50and soon the pack flees here again a hyena pack corners a lion they harass the big cat in every
09:57way
09:57possible and the lion really can't go up against all of these opponents single-handedly but the pride
10:02isn't far away the other lines notice the commotion nearby soon the entire pride is there to help its
10:08trapped member the hyenas disperse realizing that the lions are here to help their comrade
10:13number 10 tiger versus sloth bear tigers and sloth bears face off in certain situations unlike the
10:20tiger's other prey a sloth bear isn't easy to take down both of these animals have sharp claws and
10:26teeth that can kill in this clip a group of tigers target a sloth bear the unaware bear walks near
10:33the
10:33tiger's den when it finally realizes its mistake the soft bear runs for cover but it's too late the tigers
10:39chase and catch up to the target soon they knock down the sloth bear and attack together the big
10:45cats easily dominate the bear here because of their superior numbers soon the bear's body goes limp and
10:50it dies in this one a sloth bear is determined to protect its cubs from a tiger attack as the
10:56tiger
10:56ventures too close the bear lashes out at it in defense then a major wrestling match breaks out between
11:03the two and neither refuses to give up fighting several bites and slaps later both parties seem to
11:08be wounded the tiger decides to leave the sloth bear and its cub alone number nine otter versus caiman
11:16caimans can pose a threat to otters that inhabit the same waters these predators often go after other
11:22cubs but things don't always go according to the caiman's plans the caiman in this one is weighing to feed
11:28on
11:28some otter babies the adult otters in the family know this if the adults don't act the otter cubs
11:34will likely die so they launch a preemptive strike on the caiman while also trying to keep the young
11:39otters far enough away from the battle after a terrible fight the adult otters manage to kill the
11:44caiman but during the fight some of the otter cubs also perish number eight mongoose versus snake
11:52snakes and mongoose are natural enemies that are ready to fight each other at the drop of a hat
11:57mongoose are resistant to snake venom but they aren't immune to it by any means a mongoose decides
12:03to take on the cobra in this video it fights on behalf of the squirrels trying to eliminate the
12:07cobra but the serpent strikes several times which the mongoose barely evades finally one of these
12:13strikes lands right on the mongoose's face signaling the end of the fight the mongoose flees the battlefield
12:20number seven jaguar versus anaconda jaguar is one of the few big cats that are effective hunters on
12:26land and in water that's one of the reasons why a jaguar is so comfortable fighting one of the
12:31largest snakes in the world even though anacondas lack venom they are still extremely dangerous
12:37anacondas can constrict around the neck of their enemies killing them this jaguar is dead set to
12:42kill and eat an anaconda here the snake doesn't get the chance to fight back as the jaguar takes it
12:47down expertly after capturing it the jaguar lifts the anaconda and carries it away number six tiger
12:54versus lion when we talk about predators fighting predators there's one battle that leaves people
13:00curious what would happen if a lion fought against a tiger if that's a question you've asked yourself
13:06then watch this next clip this male lion suddenly charges the tiger and attacks the tiger doesn't hold
13:12back or run it stands and fights back both the big cats stand on their hind legs and hit each
13:17other
13:17with their paws but the tiger is much bigger in stature than the lion after the fight the lion tries
13:23to assert its dominance the tiger on the other hand doesn't seem interested in conflict and moves away
13:30number five scorpion versus tarantula scorpions and tarantulas rely on their venom to kill prey
13:36that's why it's interesting to see which of them comes out on top in a fierce battle a tarantula and
13:42a
13:42scorpion are facing each other the tarantula strikes first but the scorpion fights back after striking
13:47each other the tarantula pounces upon the scorpion the scorpion stings it and it seems that the game
13:53is over for the tarantula number four ants versus hornet ants attack together allowing them to take
14:00down bigger prey easily hornets usually prey on bees wasps and other creatures but even they have a tough
14:07time going up against a colony of ants an ant army attacks a giant hornet while it is trying to
14:12climb
14:12a tree giant hornets are dangerous predators in their own right but in this clip ants seem to have
14:18the upper hand the ants attack the hornet and paralyze it the hornet's attempts at escape fail miserably
14:23more ants join in the fight to destroy the bug number three ant versus european wasp european wasps are
14:32quite dangerous often attacking when their nests are disturbed but a single such wasp won't do
14:37against a colony of ants in this next video a european wasp comes face to face with aggressive ants
14:43these ants waste almost no time in swarming the wasps from all sides the wasp struggles but does
14:49not stand a chance against such a coordinated ant army attack soon the ants methodically dismantle the
14:55wasp's carcass number two indigo snake kills python snakes are known for killing and eating other
15:02snakes serpents that feed on other snakes are known as ophiophagic snakes an indigo snake is getting ready
15:08to fight a python it pursues its prey and snatches its neck right away the python tries to wrap itself
15:14around the indigo's body in an attempt to liberate itself the indigo on the other hand is much more
15:19powerful it drags the python through the soil till it's tired out then swallows it whole
15:25number one polar bear versus walrus polar bears are one of the strongest predators in the northern

15:38to bears in this thrilling clip a polar bear decides to attack a walrus herd for a nice meal once
15:44these
15:44animals reach the water the polar bear has little chance of killing them despite this the polar bear
15:49attempts another attack as the walrus herd retreats into the sea the predator leaves one walrus and
15:55grabs another but most of the walruses quickly move towards the sea when predators fight you can never
