July 19 (UPI) -- A visitor to a Georgia river became a spectator to an aquatic battle-to-the-death between a rattlesnake and a king snake.

The video, filmed in Milledgeville, shows a rattlesnake and a king snake doing battle in a body of water that appears to be the Oconee River.

The serpents coil together and strike one another in the water until one comes out victorious.

The filmer said the rattlesnake was "overtaken" by the king snake.
