Forest officials confronted by a king cobra during a rescue operation in a Dehradun village; distressing footage gains widespread attention online.
In a daring act of bravery, Forest Officer G.S. Roshni successfully rescued an 18-foot-long King Cobra from a residential area in Kerala. The incident, which was captured on video by onlookers, has since gone viral on social media, with the hashtags #KingCobra and #Kerala trending.
Unlike the incident in Dehradun, which took place in the Jhajhra range of the forest division, the location of Roshni's rescue is not specified as part of a forest division or range. This rescue is a separate incident from the one in Dehradun, where a King Cobra was spotted stranded on a tree in Bhauwala village.
In the video, the King Cobra can be seen fighting with the snake rescuers, but Roshni managed to handle the reptile skillfully. Her bravery in rescuing the giant snake without any safety gear has garnered widespread praise from netizens.
After the rescue, the King Cobra was later released safely into its natural habitat. It's not specified in the article when this release took place.
Meanwhile, another forest officer, Priya, rescued a King Cobra in the Kollam district. However, unlike Roshni's rescue, the incident in Dehradun saw forest department officials attacked by the King Cobra during a rescue attempt.
The viral video of Roshni's King Cobra rescue has sparked discussions alongside the earlier incident, which was titled "Viral Video: Lady Forest Officer Captures 18-Foot-Long King Cobra Without Any Safety Gears; Netizens Praise Her Bravery."
The video of the incident was posted on a different platform, adding to its popularity on social media. Both Roshni and Priya's acts of bravery serve as a testament to the dedication and courage of forest officers in protecting wildlife and ensuring public safety.
