Oh my god...

i never saw such a big snake in my life time..
I beleive every living creature in the earth is trying to live in harmony with other living beings, surrounding them..

But when man disturb them, they are trying to disturb back...
It is really amazing to see such a poisonous snake in a calm way in the hands of a man..

Keep it up.. Please be cautious too....

Dear Joy, It is fascinating to see your ways of handling. Only request is Please save all the snakes from the snake museum of Trivandrum in the name of GOD! It is typically a concentration camp for the snakes.

Hi...

It's the second finger from left which controls the movement of snake towards the catcher if the that finger is holded then the snakes head will come towards the face of the catcher..always hold the snake lightly...if any one holds tightly..the snake will try to jump from the hands of the catcher....and above all the eye contact......
