you stupid morons, a 35 cm snake is about a foot and a half long. a decent sized mouse could have a chance at killing a snake that small. this is news? maybe an image of jesus was found on the mouses fur.

Look at the photo. That is a rat, not a ‘tiny’ mouse, and is too big for the snake to eat. Nice work, firefighters. Nothing funny about this…and they let it go on for 30 minutes.

Poor snake! Look at how big the mouse is in comparison. “Tiny mouse” my *%^$!! That was a tiny snake. And these idiots watched it get torn apart for 30 minutes? This isn’t “funny”, it’s cruel and horrific!

im a person who keeps snakes and first off that mouse is way to big of a prey item for that snake,second i have to worry about mice attacking my snakes so i feed them frozen thawed rodents. mice attacking snakes in capitivy happens more often than u think .

I like this story, especially since I can vividly recall seeing many years ago in the San Francisco zoo a little mouse quivering with fright and barely clinging to the roof of a cage containing a very large but temporarily uninterested snake lying below.

I’ve also seen on TV a mongoose defeat a king cobra and it was encouraging to see my fellow mammal win this particular contest.

In unsure and turbulent times such as these we are having now, I truly enjoy stories that bring a smile to my face! (I suppose I have always been for the “supposed” underdog). But you never can tell what people and/or living creatures really have in them until they are put to the test. That mouse was not about to let some creepy, slithery snake ruin his day. Nope, that little guy fought with all of his might and surprised everyone; he won! What a great story! It just goes to show, you never really know what is going to happen, i.e. the Presidential election, until it’s over. (I know that no “alleged” poll has asked me who I am voting for!). So, never give up and fight to the finish! God Bless America! (smiling)

Wow!

Wow saw the title and thought McCain killed Palin

That snake was way too small to eat that mouse. Of course the mouse would kill it.

It is an unusual story, but it would’ve been nice if they took either the snake or the mouse out of the cage before the poor, little snake was killed. I don’t particularily like snakes, but I hate to see any animal killed, especially in a painful way.

Hooooray for the little guy.. He didn’t want to become snake food. I’m glad he won so now what did they do to him? Let him live and give him a victorious name. How will we find out what happened after the fight. ??? I love little mice. I think they are cute.
