Fortunately, as soon as the rains stopped, some experts from the Wildlife and Nature Conservation Fund of India (WNCT), came to remove the animal and return it to the wild.
The Indian cobra is among the largest venomous snakes in the world and is responsible for the majority of snakebite occurrences in the country.
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that every year there are between 81,000 and 138,000 deaths caused by snake venom in India. Of these, most are works of an Indian cobra, which has a very powerful poison.
In this case, the snake was albino, which indicates that it had a major change in its body's melanin production, a condition that is considered relatively rare and acquired hereditary.
In many cases, albino animals die at a very young age, because, because of their color, they are more exposed to predators and susceptible to attacks.
However, the snake removed from the residence in India was already an adult, which demonstrates that it was able to defend itself when young.
The Indian Civil Defense services warn the population that, in the midst of storms, try to stay away from water, especially if it is very cloudy, precisely to avoid accidents.
