A southern ground hornbill is seen snacking on a venomous puff adder in South Africa's Kruger National Park on February 21.<br /><br />The bird, which has been listed as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, patrols some grassland before emerging with the deadly snake in its beak.<br /><br />Robert Humphries, who filmed this footage, told Newsflare: "Although they can fly, ground hornbills spend much of their time on the ground, hunting. <br /><br />"They are formidable predators, taking a range of prey from large invertebrates, frogs, reptiles such as small tortoises, lizards, and snakes and small mammals."
