Peacock's Secret: How it Eats Venomous Snakes Unharmed, Expert Explains

• Our national bird, the peacock, is omnivorous and skillfully hunts and consumes highly venomous snakes.
• Wildlife expert Abhishek reveals that snake venom, primarily complex proteins, becomes deadly only when it mixes directly with the bloodstream.
• If venom is swallowed directly without entering the blood, it is easily digested in the stomach like any other protein.
• Peacocks rarely have cuts or ulcers in their mouth, esophagus, or stomach, preventing the venom from mixing with their blood.
• Unlike peacocks, humans often have ulcers or small wounds, making accidental venom ingestion potentially fatal as it can enter the bloodstream.
