Lottery time! Snake catchers find cobra and 31 eggs

Sanook Thai Caption: Loads of cobra eggs found!

Snake catchers were called to a house in Chaiyaphum sub-district of Ang Thong province, central Thailand, after a house owner called Saengdao, 54, and her family spotted a large snake in an outside loo.

They examined a couple of cavities that had been dug to try and get to the snake without success.

After a two hour operation that involved smashing the floor of the toilet 10 meters from the house by a klong, they managed to get a 1.5 meter long cobra that was returned to nature, reported Sanook.

They also found 31 eggs in a nest.

This number was to be used to help with winning the lottery - the draw is due this Thursday, 16th February.
