Mongoose 101 - Interesting Facts about Mongooses

Have you ever wondered why the mongoose can be bitten by poisonous snakes – and be totally fine? Or why do they fight in the first place? While the mongoose may be adorable and furry, this animal is far from harmless. The first time you probably heard of a mongoose was in the renowned children story book known as the Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling as Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. In the book, the young mongoose protects the family from a cobra that would have likely killed the child. These feisty little snake hunters are fascinating. In this video, we are going to discuss some amazing facts about mongoose that will surely amaze you.

Interesting video, however every single image (other than a few individual) of the mongoose were actually of meerkats.

I saw a mongoose attack my buddy when I was stationed in Hawaii, he left food in his bag and was using that bag as a pillow so it basically jumped on his face lol

They don’t “hate” each other. It’s just instinct.

Why is everyone thinking meerkats are different from mongooses

[sad_doggo]

You didn't explain *why* the mongoose and snake are trying to kill each other though

[zerofuxgiven]

for comments below, Meerkats are from the Mongoose family

Not sure why they’re showing pythons and boas (non venomous snakes) while talking about venomous snakes.
