Massive 12-foot king cobra discovered in Odisha temple, safely rescued
Wednesday evening prayers at the Ratnei Temple in Ganjam, Odisha, were interrupted when a 12-foot king cobra was discovered on the premises. After the temple priest noticed the reptile, he immediately contacted the Chikiti Forest Department. A local Snake Helpline crew managed to capture the snake following a stressful hour-long rescue mission, after which it was released back into its natural habitat.
