King Cobra hides inside a car, travels about 200 km with a Kerala family. Watch rescue video

However, evading their security check, the reptile managed to sneak in and stayed inside the vehicle while Sujith and his family ventured for trips. They travelled about 200 km blissfully unaware of the reptile’s presence.

A month later, snake skin was spotted inside the car and snake expert Vava Suresh was summoned. Suresh could only find the snake’s excrement and said the snake was in the premises. Suresh’s claim triggered panic in the neighbourhood.

After days, the snake’s tail was found inside a heap of coconut husks in Sujith’s neighbourhood. Alert locals covered it with a net and informed forest officials. Later, Abheesh, the forest department’s snake catcher, reached the spot, rescued the snake and released it into the wild.
