Viral Video: Social media is full of videos where some felines can be seen trying a hand (or a paw) with either a snakelet or even an adult reptile. Surprisingly, the common fear of these deadly creatures often does not apply to the quick felines. However, the risk that the venomous creatures possess can still not be sidelined, due to which the internet has often found itself divided when it comes to choosing a side. Triggering something similar, a video surfaced online, which split the netizens. The viral video showed a showdown between a leopard and a cobra, but the video ended before the results were seen. The cliffhanger worked perfectly and left the netizens intrigued and led them to choose a side. The video was shared on the Instagram handle ‘WildTrails.in’.

The video went viral as the intense faceoff intrigued netizens. Many also chose sides while most sided with the big cat and recalled the reflexes that these felines possess. Others argued that the snake has the upper hand as the leopard is cornered on a tree with fewer options to run. The video was posted a few days ago and pulled many views.
Taking to the comment box, people shared their take. “It’s a cobra, not a king cobra,” a user pointed out. “I'm betting on the leopard, they have really fast reflexes and can speed and keep up with almost everything,” said the next person. “Still taking the cat,” added a third user. “Really. a fantastic moment” joined a fourth person. “Superb footage,” added another. “The cat is sure for a win, they are really quick most of the time,” commented a sixth netizen.
