Two monitor lizards were filmed fiercely battling in the
middle of a dusty road.
The animals were spotted grappling with each other for
nearly three minutes as huge buses, tuk tuks and motorbikes passed just metres
away.
A clip shows the lizards, which are known for fighting over
food or females, on their hind legs as they compete for victory.
They can be seen thrashing each other with their long tales
and even pushing each other to the ground during the three-minute war.
At one point, one of the animals appears to have the upper
hand and forces the other into the dust as a bus roars by.
The fight eventually comes to a pause as one manages to
scamper away.
But - with the other hot on its heels - the fight continues
in the sandy verge and the clip ends with lizards still clutching each other.
The footage, which is believed to be from Saudi Arabia, has
been viewed nearly 5,000 times having been uploaded to YouTube on Wednesday.
Monitor lizards are known for their long necks and powerful
tails and claws.
