In the viral video, the snake can be seen wrapping itself around the alligator while trying to swallow it. The footage exhibits residents of the neighbourhood attempting to pull the 2 reptiles away by tying a rope around them.

After the locals intervened, the two reptiles were separated successfully. Bystanders said that the anaconda was more than six feet in length.
