Very interesting..

How brilliant is that. I guess at that size they aren't natural prey for each?

 

[Vincey]

So awesome

Are you saying this was filmed over more than 1 day? Neither one feels threatened by the other, very unusual though & your friend is very lucky to get that on film.

Thats very cool, great video.

Amazing and fascinating!!

They are evidently able to discern that each is too big to prey on, so tolerate each others presence instead of wasting energy and risking injury to attempt to kill one another. Both gain in having access to the shelter. Ain't nature grand?

I am curious now to know what the sharing arrangements were inside the burrow.

Thanks for sharing. Really fascinating stuff.

Thats amazing! animals never run out of ways to surprise us

Very unusual, the snake is normally on the goanna list of things it likes to eat and that snake is not too big to kill and eat. One factor might be lots of easy goanna food within reach. The Utube comments have a supernatural and delusional reason completely at odds with the observational natural world.
