I'd like to invite you to dance... Volgograd residents were frightened by the "mating dance" of snakes at a bus stop
An unexpected sight awaited the residents Krasnooktyabrsky district At a tram stop: two snakes intertwined in a "mating dance." The frightened women found the strength shoot a video and joke: "Who needs snakes? Come."But they still called the rescuers.
Biologist Nikolay Onistratenko explained:
"Right now, the season for snake weddings is ending. Spring was early, but quite cold. If you see snakes, it's best, of course, not to interfere. If you interrupt such a romantic encounter, both lovers could behave very aggressively, and anyone would understand. It's best to avoid them. Animals are animals; they don't understand common sense. Then they'll crawl off to their own business."
A little later, rescuers arrived for the amorous snakes and began capturing them. The women stopped filming, saying it was "very scary."
In the comments, Volgograd residents expressed the opinion that this is a harmless snake. "They live at the dacha, catching mice," "Volgograd is actually a steppe, so the presence of a large number of reptiles is perfectly natural. That's their habitat," "They're very beautiful. Well, each one has its own mating habits."— the townspeople discussed the unusual wedding.
