This made me SICK!

I literally ran to the bathroom to throw up.

I debated whether to post this here. I don't know, I figured somebody can do something to get these people put in jail! Although the video is 2 years old.

Or maybe this is a joke and I'm just not getting the punch-line.

YouTube - Crazy People let baby near a venomous snake

I saw it a couple months back, it obviouly is defanged but damn!

Ahhh sorry. I put it on the wrong section again.

I was wanting to put it under Herp Broadcast!

But then, it probably should go to Venomous Animals... Yo, Bruce... I'll let you decide.

If its the cobra and baby, they sewed the mouth of the cobra shut. Very sad to see for the cobra. :(

Thats terrible!!

It's unfortunately common for snake charmers in rural areas to sew the mouth shut, so there is no risk of being bitten.
I would then have to think the snake eventually is killed or dies of dehydration/starvation, as it would be unable to eat (although maybe drinking could happen).
Very cruel practice, and the officials do try to stop it.

Those people have been doing that for a thousand years.all the cobras have had their fangs ripped out,steve irwin did a clip on idian snake tribes once, 1000's of snakes die each year,also i heard idia is banning the street shows the charmers got together & protested the right to do what they do thats how they make a living.

They are not the brightest bunch thats for sure :mad:

i wouldnt say there not the brightest bunch...by our standards its wrong, by their standards its culture.

What you see as wrong, is not seen as wrong by others. ;)
