Yesterday was ‘World Snake Day’. This is just good as for as information. Or else for celebration, social media post is just as good as anything. And same for spreading awareness.
The snake catchers in Jamshedpur have some bizarre plans. The snake rescuers in the city catch some snakes cut cake and try to feed them. The team protects the locals from the five venomous snakes found in the city including Common Krait, Banded Krait, and Viper.
In the video captured a woman cutting the cake while others stand beside her carrying snakes. The woman then tries feeding the snakes with cake.
“Yeh cake khaskar saanpo ke liye hai isiliye humne unhe pehle cake khiyala. Saanpo ne bhi humara samman rakha aur unhone us cake ko khaya,” the woman says.
Here is the video of the incident that happened on World Snake Day.
Snakes are dangerous and everyone is familiar with it. The internet slammed the snake rescue team for their ignorance and called the celebration “irresponsible”. Many said that the snakes should be rescued from the rescue team itself.
To celebrate #WorldSnakeDay2020 they cut a cake and even fed some to the snake and were so happy abt it.
If these r snake rescuers thn they are more dangerous for snakes.

Wtf is this?! Snake rescuers are expected to be responsible enough to educate citizens on misconceptions about snakes… What does one say when they themselves behave like this? @JharkhandVan https://t.co/AckpMV5ItR
