Wild pigs are resilient to most snake venom, including that of the western diamondback rattlesnake. Those pigs will often kill and even feed on venomous snakes without any effect on their health!
Wild (or feral) pigs are resilient to the venom of many snakes, including rattlesnakes and they will harass and even kill and eat venomous snakes, such as the western diamondback rattlesnake in this video. The rattlesnake happens to be in the wrong place when the pigs showed up for feeding. The wild pigs kept pushing the snake, which in return strikes at the intruders to keep them unsuccessfully at a save distance. Regardless of the many snake bites, the wild pigs showed no symptoms of envenomation nor didn’t they retreat or die of any snakebite. The rattlesnake eventually had enough of the constant harassment and move out of danger zone and into a saver location. On a last not, this pigs seem to have found enough found on the ground, cuz a hungry pig will not hesitate to kill and eat a rattlesnake.
Rattlesnakes belong to the group of venomous snakes called pit vipers (Croatian). There are 32 known species of rattlesnakes with 65-70 subspecies, all of them are native to the Americas and ranging from southern British Columbus in Canada to Central America Argentina. Rattlesnakes are predators who live in a wide array of habitats, hunting meanly small animals such as birds and small mammals such as rodents . They kill their prey with a venomous bite. All rattlesnakes possess a set of fangs with which they inject large quantities of hemotoxic venom. The venom travels through the bloodstream, destroying victim’s tissue and causing swelling, internal bleeding, and intense pain. Some species, such as the Mojave Rattlesnake, additionally possess a neurotoxic component in their venom that causes paralysis and other symptoms on the nervous system. Rattlesnake Attacks Pigs was filmed by Heiko Kiera aka Ojatro in 2012.
