Info from Licensor: "This video was filmed on a Giraffe walk at Swartberg Game Reserve, situated 4 hours drive from Cape Town. We watched it darting in and out of the rocks on the hunt! The snake then left the garden area and proceeded to climb a tree fence (as seen in the clip). I had no idea that the snake had bitten a frog while hunting in the garden. It was just watching and waiting from the vantage point for the venom to kick in. This is when the video starts. I spotted the frog, which was now trying to hop on the lawn and the snake approached and claimed his prize. The snake then continued hunting for another 2 hours before retreating into the gutter and under the roof sheeting."
