Snake tries to attack man in his garden

An impressive video has emerged of a garter snake trying to attack a man in his garden in Toronto, Canada.

The footage, shot earlier this year, shows the reptile jumping twice at the man's camera as he captures a video.

"After a few minutes of this, I was able to pick the snake up by its tail & placed it in my recycling box before my sister and brother-in-law came home to let the dog out," he wrote online.
