Snake’s hilarious attempt to scare the camera leaves internet in splits; netizens compare it to Kermit the Frog

A hilarious video of a snake seemingly trying to intimidate a camera has gone viral on social media, leaving viewers amused by its unusual expressions. Rather than causing any fear, the facial movements of the reptile and its gaze caused everyone to laugh. This was a video that was shared on the internet by Reddit user "Golden Chinchilla."



The video starts off by displaying a snake with a camera directly in front of its face. In the video, the snake opens its mouth and stares intensely toward the camera for quite some time.
The snake's appearance quickly became a point of discussion as people were especially amazed by its facial expressions and vibrant coloration. Quite a number of users left humorous comments in the comments section making the video go viral.

Reactions on social media

For example, one user said, “He's making the same face as Kermit the Frog whenever he gets angry.” This particular comment caught the attention of several viewers who found the comparison accurate. Another user loved the reptile's appearance and remarked, “I love the colors. So hypnotic.”


The distinctive appearance of the snake also generated interest among wildlife lovers. As one individual commented, “I am curious, what type of snake is that? Very interesting.” In response to the question raised, another participant commented, “Not sure, but considering its mouth and possibly having no fangs, I think it may be a Rhombic Egg-eater.”

While the discussion was still ongoing, other individuals made fun of the facial expression of the snake by making such comments as “This thing looks very angry, like an old man forgot to put in their teeth.”

However, there were some people who were not entertained by this video and expressed worry about the welfare of the animal and whether it was being disturbed to make the video. One person posted, “Perhaps you should let the animal be?” Another had the same concern and said, “The snake appears very scared of the situation. Don’t provoke animals and film.”

These contrasting opinions reflect a common trend that is witnessed on social media sites where animal videos go viral. While some people enjoy seeing these unique videos of animals, there are others who believe that the animals should be left alone in their natural habitats.

Nevertheless, the video remains popular, with people continuing to go back to the comment section to learn about the ever-so-clever descriptions of the snake’s expression. Whether the snake looks like a cartoon character or an irritable old man, it continues to attract even more people to watch it and become entertained by it.
Regardless, the video remains a great hit because of the very unique look that the snake makes. While the snake's intentions were completely opposite of what actually happened with many finding it extremely amusing to watch.
