Look how cool
Be careful! Huh
You know what a cobra looks like?
Because, this is not a cobra!
This is a 'Water Keel-back'
I think she's looking for shelter
or a place to hide
and it's heading straight to my bag
because they need a cozy place to hide
and that's how snakes are
I know the snake very well
It's unpredictable
You can see it's tame right now
but the moment I touch it
It'll go nuts
Just crazy and mad
There you go!
Come on little snake
I got you
The first strike!
The first strike!
See!
Look!
The snake's first instinct is to hide
and it's very aggressive
It strikes! It strikes!
It strikes quickly
And once the snake is up,
Look at it!
It will start showing its
its yellow scales
It's a very vibrant yellow
It's in that colour because
because as nature shows
colours like yellow are warning signs
black
green
and red
OK
That colour means
That colour means danger
Until recently, I didn't know that these types of snakes could kill
How did they know?
There were accidents in which
kids have been bitten
by snakes
specifically a Keel-back
and they die.
That's when they realised that their venom comes from the back of the mouth
from a tooth in the back
and they didn't expect that
This snake moves just like a cobra
It crawls really slowly
There! There!
You see how aggressive it gets
If I don't move
the snake won't see me as a threat
But if I move,
I pose as a threat to it
But if I stand still,
it won't do anything
Look how gorgeous it is
Just look at this beautiful snake
This is such a wonderful creature guys!
You see how aggressive it is?
I think it is mad right now
He wants to bite
anything in its path
Oh! She did
She is biting me right now
We saw how she behaved earlier
Right! and she is
Ah! Come on! Come on!
Come On!
Let it go!
You saw that
This snake bit me again
If she gets to do it properly
she will sink her teeth
really deep into my skin
I can't hear
It's where the venom came from
And one of the reasons why we know there is venom,
is because the blood is not clotting
It's really burning right now
I don't know what will happen
and I'm really nervous
right now
OK
I can keep my hands like this
I think I can try
but I'm hurting
Let's set the snake loose
Have fun in the water.
