Humans actually promotes cobra and other snake population around their villages where there are plenty of rats, domestic animals which becomes its preys. Piles of garbage are ideal habitat.
The way you capture the King Cobra is very gentle and meticulous, that's why the cobra is not agitated and not fighting, unlike other snake hunter here in YT. Commended. Great display of expertise.
that's a big snake alright, even for a king cobra. there is something special about them, when they stand up and look at whoever dares to be near them... 🐍
What a big boy! You do an absolutely incredible work for preservation of Ophiophagus. We clearly see here that the animal is never agressive but defensive and your technique of the bag is probably the best. It is just here a little to small for this king size. All the best and big big congrats for your field work.
Surely the most intelligent species on the planet, not to mention the most magnificent snake you will ever encounter. They have a way of allowing humans to interact with them! Great rescue and release, love your channel! 🙏🙏
Not once did the King Cobra strike at Dr. Gowri Shankar! What a beautiful, intelligent snake. I am originally from Karnataka, the land of King Cobras!. Thank you brother, for your dedication in protecting our wildlife🙏
Good catch Sir! God Bless! Poor reptiles & wild animals are losing their habitat & inadvertently stray into human settlements. It's people like you who save them from death & extinction. 👍
Kase sa pinas maliit p yung king Cobra pinapatay n pag na encounter ng mga tao... kaya hindi sila lumalaki ng ganyan kalaki sa pinas ngayon eh....... at dyan sa video n yan walang tao ang pumapatay ng king cobra sa bansa nila kaya mga super jumbo yung mga king cobra dyan eh.... kaya hindi takot sa tao yung king Cobra dyan... sa halip yung mga tao dyan ang malaki ang takot at sinasamba p nila yung king Cobra n parang Diyos nila eh
Napansin ko.... hindi nila kayang hawakan yung ulo ng King Cobra dyan... at takot n takot silang hawakan...... hindi katulad ng mga shake hunter d2 sa Pinas n parang simple lng n dakmain yung ulo ng King Cobra 😮
Hi Gowri shankar. Nice to find your channel and connect after 16 years when we had visited your research station in Agumbe. That snake is one hell of a big daddy. Awesome specimen. Happy to see their kind thriving
What was the length ? Also how far away from habitation do these get released ? At any point in that region we have someone's house or field or similar right. So wont it come back to human contact again?
Dr Gowri Shankar, as a wildlife enthusiast i have couple of questions for you. 1. Once you have caught a snake, you make sure that you release them back. but probably at a different location to its actual burrow(home ) that could have been very close to where it was caught. In such a case wouldn't the snake get agitated. 2. Is it possible that the fangs of King cobra penetrate even through the cloth you use. 3. How are they able to breathe inside the cloth until you release them. Am sorry if these question looks silly but am just curious.
Snakes are beneficial to farms, they keep the rodent population in check. Although venomous snakes are fearsome, they seldom attack unprovoked. And in the rare case they do bite a human, it’s mainly a dry bite, no venom is used because humans are not prey. Fear and greed drives us to exterminate animals.
Awesome work. 👌 Just one thing, try to put the snake in the plastic container as that way the serpent wouldn't be able to bite through the bag. Just want you guys to be very safe. That's all. 😊
You are an expert and very skilled but other snake catchers may be learning (?) from your rescue works so please incorporate safety gloves etc while handling cobras. Salutes to your work
Had seen capture of one beauty in a bamboo forest in south India. That was even bigger. Sadly not able to search it out again. That KC was awe inspiring too like this fellow.
Hi sir i am watching your video first time, it is very nice to see you the way you handling it! Salute I would love to attend some resque calls with you, how could i?
Well done ..he was handling the snake and kept looking towards the camera talking i was thinking watch the snake not the cam coz they can go within a blink of an eye
@@gowrikalinga Thank you for the info!! Amazing, beautiful creature that scares the hell out of me 😅but I'm thankful there are experts like you that can handle and respect them and in this case get this individual out of a situation that likely would have ended poorly for him otherwise.

Beautiful king cobra , too many humans taking up their space. At least you rescued him from harm, well done 🙏.
Humans actually promotes cobra and other snake population around their villages where there are plenty of rats, domestic animals which becomes its preys. Piles of garbage are ideal habitat.
It's population pressure on land.
My goodness, what a beautiful specimen! Excellent job chaps! Keep up the good work! Cheers from South Africa. 🇿🇦
The way you capture the King Cobra is very gentle and meticulous, that's why the cobra is not agitated and not fighting, unlike other snake hunter here in YT. Commended. Great display of expertise.
Thank you. Thats point. I want to show how a king cobra can/should be handled gently and never stress or harass the snake in the pretext of rescue.
the real expert who makes a difference .Not youtube wildlife celebrities
Magnificient snake, by far the biggest King Cobra I've ever seen on video. Glad to see it saved and relocated.
May God bless you for rescuing and relocating such a grand serpent!!!
Thank you
that's a big snake alright, even for a king cobra. there is something special about them, when they stand up and look at whoever dares to be near them... 🐍
absolutely agree
no show boating.that's why i like this guy
💯
1:54 back side sister be like ಒಡ್ರೋ ಒಡ್ರೋ ಒಡ್ರೋ..... ಇದು ಸರ್ಜಾ ಅಡ್ಡ 😂😅
😂😂
One of the reasons King Cobras are so majestic, they have no interest in hurting people. They know they can, yet they always just try to leave

May be he too didn’t anticipated that huge size😅 hence medium bag size
thank you.
@@bharatbshetty Yes, i din't expect him to be that huge 🙂

The King Cobra stare is majestic, the look it owns is something.
Such a beautiful humble and polite creature by God.Save and conserve it.

Iam fan your passion sir 🥰❤
I'am a avid viewer of snake rescues. Yes you are right, this is the biggest I viewed ever in all videos. Good job. 💪
Thanks
The King was so gentle and quiet. I've normally seen Cobras get all kinds of agitated when on rescues
Not once did the King Cobra strike at Dr. Gowri Shankar! What a beautiful, intelligent snake. I am originally from Karnataka, the land of King Cobras!. Thank you brother, for your dedication in protecting our wildlife🙏
Good catch Sir! God Bless!
Poor reptiles & wild animals are losing their habitat & inadvertently stray into human settlements.

The respect in his eyes when he releases it!!! wow
Awesome catch and release- thank you so much 🙏👏
He's too big for that pipe xD
Also he made your snake handling tools look tiny xD Good job!

Am watching you guys from Philippines we hame a king Cobra also in Philippines but not really super size
Meron din ung nahuli nila cobra prince or ng mga team cobra
Kase sa pinas maliit p yung king Cobra pinapatay n pag na encounter ng mga tao... kaya hindi sila lumalaki ng ganyan kalaki sa pinas ngayon eh....... at dyan sa video n yan walang tao ang pumapatay ng king cobra sa bansa nila kaya mga super jumbo yung mga king cobra dyan eh.... kaya hindi takot sa tao yung king Cobra dyan... sa halip yung mga tao dyan ang malaki ang takot at sinasamba p nila yung king Cobra n parang Diyos nila eh

Thats nice. Some day I want to visit Philippine islands to see your king cobras.
You r grest Sir. Thank you for saving an innocent's life
King Cobras and Anacondas are my favourite snakes. I love this snake. So regal and intelligent. See the yellow on his breast? Beautiful! Thank you.
That's a massive snake! Nice handling!
Gotta be at least 16-17',but his girth is the most amazing thing .jeez!
Yes, Girth is amazing. He was 15 ft.
beautiful creature. attitude towards snakes of locals is highly appreciated 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Super. Beautiful king , well behaved for easy relocation. A treat to watch the catch.
This is a great snake and a great man. Good work brother.
There is a reason why they are called king cobra.
Bcuz they eat other snakes.
Hi Gowri shankar. Nice to find your channel and connect after 16 years when we had visited your research station in Agumbe.

Hey Mahesh, thanks. Good to see your message.
What was the length ?
Also how far away from habitation do these get released ? At any point in that region we have someone's house or field or similar right. So wont it come back to human contact again?
He was 15 ft. I release within 4-6 sq km in radius. That is their home range which we found out using radio telemetry study.
Lately all rescuers are rescueing the LARGEST king cobra😂😂 while almost all fully grown king cobras are of handsome size.
That's a MASSIVE specimen! The girth on that is insane, barely fit through the pipe! Neat job!
Yes
I wonder what female k.k would dare to say yes to a date with a huge Kobra like that
Great job, guys! Thank you for doing this.
Such a majestic creature
That snake is awesome. I couldn't believe this man nerves os steel.

That King Cobra is massive.....a very huge snake.....just wow
Amazing snake, good work!
Woww i remember the one you caught with Simon and Siouxsie was around 8Kg
Damnnn love this
ಅಧ್ಭುತ ಕೆಲ್ಸ ಅಣ್ಣ. 🎉❤ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು

What a beauty this king ❤
Even if onr dosent go there, it'll eventually drift away!!! It's NOT interested in meeting us!! Great work!!!
That's real King 👑

King cobra doesnt eat rodent. they eat snakes
@@paxcssr not necessarily., rodents are a big part of a snakes prey!
@@shamdoundyakhed5314 king cobra eats snakes. Not rodent. Its thier diet. Google it.
@@shamdoundyakhed5314Not all snakes eat rodents!!
@@shamdoundyakhed5314Rat snakes eat rats and king cobras eat rat snakes!
Beau king cobra le relâcher dans la foret❤❤❤
Awesome work. 👌
Just one thing, try to put the snake in the plastic container as that way the serpent wouldn't be able to bite through the bag. Just want you guys to be very safe. That's all. 😊
Thank you very much, I appreciate your concern.
Awesome video, former Bangalorean, brought back memories of cobras near my house. Thank you for your work. How do i contribute to your organization?
Hello Srinivas, Thank you for your kind words. Please check our website www.kalingafoundation.org/donate/ for more details for contribution
Hi where abouts did this rescue occur..What a huge snake.
Love your work sir, I am a huge fan of snakes!
Thank you.
Great work sir, not only people but these animals also has the right to live🙏🙏
absolutely
thank you.... nothing to tell you more.... Take care and prayers
Red saree aunty ran like Usain Bolt 😂
What a beautiful snake..
is there any plant or tree which can keep snake away..............
Bravo big respect for good man❤
Such a Majestic snake and the most poisonous but still it's just trying to get away and not attack the person trying to catch it. It's the King..
Truely majestic figure.
He's simply going to go straight home after the show, and release 😂
Looks like a whole person is in that bag. 3:39 😂
You are an expert and very skilled but other snake catchers may be learning (?) from your rescue works so please incorporate safety gloves etc while handling cobras. Salutes to your work
I hope they will incorporate. Snake gloves will not help in handling king cobras.
Now that is truly a... KING ...🙏 Beautiful Godly looking Specimen...!!!
What a beautiful specimen. Must be one of the biggest ever filmed.
You are right. It will be published soon.
Had seen capture of one beauty in a bamboo forest in south India. That was even bigger. Sadly not able to search it out again. That KC was awe inspiring too like this fellow.
@@desibigfoot3874 Oh ok. Was that on a documentary?
@@gowrikalinga Yes Sir. I believe nat Geo/ discovery or animal planet.
Just like Cobra Prince Philippines!
Hi Dr. Gowri. How do you know that the snake is not nesting or laid eggs in the area? If they have, wouldn’t relocating them cause a problem?
Great work. Your videos will reach further if you could have sub titles to over come language challenge.🎉
Sure, working on it. Thanks.
Hi sir i am watching your video first time, it is very nice to see you the way you handling it!
Salute
I would love to attend some resque calls with you, how could i?
Well done ..he was handling the snake and kept looking towards the camera talking i was thinking watch the snake not the cam coz they can go within a blink of an eye

Clever technique of catching big snakes.
Yes, pipe and bag technique is one of the unique techniques to capture huge snakes.
Magnificent creature beautiful ❤
Wow... it's really good one..
We share this planet with amazing animals. Too bad they share it with animals like us.
Great work
Can you please add subtitles?
wow great work
Beautiful animal

Super good job sir 👍🏼
Not to be obscure but does the guy with the snake have a third appendage 😮😮😮
Amazing video ❤️
Cool big cobra 🐍😊
Wonderful sir.....frm ujjain mp
How old is a snake that size?? What's their lifespan in the wild typically?
He might be around 18 or 20 years. We don't know their lifespan in the wild, while in captivity I have calculated around 25 years.
