You couldn't make sound stereo? It's only left channel

My Left ear really enjoyed that, thanks

I think rattlesnakes are kinder with their Venom; poison beats being crushed

Motion detection is also widely used by snakes to catch prey though this fact has not been mentioned by the presenter. In the wilds of the Amazon forest, my dad told me that most hunters were effective because the snake would catch the bullet.

I was unable to hear the whole video except the outro

Audio is not working properly, only left channel is present. Does anybody actually check the files before uploading?? You need STEREO. It's not rocket science, you know??

O rato foi direto para as profundezas do estômago da cobra.

Every woman is a little bit zoo for a stallion. Every man is a little bit zoo for a lady snake. Ohhh baby...

Smithsonian or 8th grade science class? Horrible info and quality
