Goosebumps-Inducing Video: Brave Mother Hen Fiercely Fights Off Cobra To Save All Her Chicks
A mother hen fights off a cobra in order to save her chicks from danger and doesn't give up until and unless the last chick is safe.
There is no doubt about the fact that mothers will go out of their way to protect their children from danger. No matter what the species is, a mother's love and fierce protection for her offspring cannot be compared to any other thing in the world.
A clear example of this is a video which was posted by Indian Forest Service officer, Susanta Nanda, on Twitter, in which a mother hen can be seen fighting off a cobra to save her chicks. The 51-second-long clip has gone viral over social media, leaving netizens in awe of the bird.
In the video, we can see the deadly cobra slithering inside an enclosure where the mother hen and her chicks are seeking shelter. As soon as the mother sees the reptile, she immediately starts fighting it off in order to save her children. While the chicks struggle to flutter away, the mother hen keeps fighting off the snake till the last of her many children are out of danger's sight.
The snake, with its hood popped up in an attacking stance, keeps attacking the mother until she manages to get all her chicks out of the enclosure.
IFS Susanta Nanda captioned the video with: 'Battle Royal. When a mother fights to save the children, it is battle royal. Brave mom saves her chicks fighting a cobra'.
Battle Royal....
