Big carpet pythons caught fighting on camera

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that social media users were left with the chills after a video of two massive male carpet pythons wrestling each other went viral.

The video posted on TikTok by Australian snake catcher Stuart McKenzie (@sunnycoastsnakecatchers) shows the two snakes hanging from the roof of a house as they fight each other.

Although both enormous, the smaller male python lost the battle and can be seen falling to the ground as his stronger opponent continues to slither back up into the roof.
