This is the dramatic moment a group of inflamed Indian villagers save a goat from being swallowed whole by a python.
The beast had its helpless prey wrapped tightly in its clutches in Bahraich, in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh.
Villagers wailed in despair as the snake slithered around its victim to begin devouring the goat from the head down.
Despite its strangle hold on the animal, the goat did not give up and kept fighting for a reported 40 minutes.
A passerby then finally came to its rescue after fellow locals were unable to shoo the snake away.
The man whacks the python on the head with a large tree branch in a crushing blow.
It slithers away for its life as the man continues to rain down multiple strikes.
The python makes it too some nearby bushes before disappearing into the wilderness to hunt for an alternative meal.
Indian news site Patrika stated the scene of the battle was Ghosiana Village in the Katarniaghat Forest.
