A cobra was seen attacking and killing three puppies in front their mother after it slithered inside a house yesterday afternoon.
In the video, the protective mother dog can be seen barking at the cobra as the snake hisses and raises its hood as it tries to attack the helpless puppies.
The serpent continues to strike at one of the puppies as two are seen lying unconscious in the Bhadrak district of Odisha in India.The dog desperately tries to protect her babies, even cornering one of the puppies but retreats in fear as the snake begins to redirect its attack.
Two men can be heard talking as one prods the seemingly unconscious puppies with a metal rod.
A stand-off between the snake and the protective mother ensues.
Using the metal rod, the men pull the snake out of the bunker and hold it up to a crowd of intrigued onlookers outside.
‘The snake was already aggressive and in an attacking mode. If we tried to save the puppies it would have bitten us too. So we didn’t risk it,’ the person filming the attack said.
