Cobra was found in the helmet of a parked scooter.
A man in Kerala narrowly avoided a poisonous snake bite when he discovered a small cobra in his two-wheeler helmet. Sojan, who hails from Thrissur, had placed his helmet on the platform next to his parked scooter at his workplace. Later that evening, as he was preparing to leave and pick up his vehicle, he noticed something lodged in his helmet.
“It felt like a snake,” Sojan said. He immediately alerted the forest department about the presence of the reptile, and a snake volunteer named Lijo arrived at the location.
The poisonous little cobra was discovered in the helmet upon closer inspection by the snake catcher. The video footage shows that when the snake catcher carefully searched for the snake by placing the helmet on the ground, it remained hidden from view on the outside. However, when the inner lining of the helmet was examined, the small cobra was detected.
The snake was only about 2 months old. Lijo, the snake volunteer, emphasized the greater danger posed by the bite of a small cobra.
“The bite of a small cobra is more dangerous than that of a larger one,” Lijo said.
