A snake catcher was seen releasing more than 300 snakes back into the wild in India. Salem Khan, from Bhopal, India has been capturing snakes for 30 years.


He rescues the snakes from people's houses and releases them in forest. The man prayed after the 'precious' snakes were released

Salem Khan, employed with Bhopal civic body, said: 'We chose to release them during the evening time as the earth is cooler during that time.

'If the earth is hot, it might cause problem to the snakes who always prefer to stay in cooler places.

'We released 285 rat snakes deep inside the forest after ensuring that there are no human habitats nearby.'
