Snake hunters seek hunt of king cobras terrorising a village in Trang

[webfact]

 

A team of snake hunters, from Thailand’s southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat, is on its way to a village in Muang district of the neighboring province of Trang today, to help toxicology officials in the hunt for king cobras, after a man is reported to have died from the snake’s bite.

 

Villagers in Ban Kok Kor in Ban Pho sub-district have been living in fear following the death of their 50-year old neighbour, who is thought to have been bitten by a king cobra near a pool in an oil palm plantation.

 

They claimed that there are up to 20 king cobras hiding in the bushes in the village, adding that the snakes are seen slithering across the village road on daily basis, to the extent that the elderly and children have been warned not to leave their homes.

What's up with "THAI PBS"? Snakes are not poisonous and they definitely don't crawl away.
