"We decided to send this snake to the Queen Saovabha Memorial Institute in Bangkok, a venomous snake husbandry facility, rather than releasing him into the wild, especially during the forest fire season. The institute has veterinarians who can best care for this huge king cobra’s health,” Mr. Nirut stated.
