look @ this video and decide!!
I know it's nice to see snakes and snake charmes......but we have no idea what the snake has to go through! In this video.....one of the most idiotic and inhumanity is show...they swed a cobra's mouth...and placed a baby with it to play....and the parents were actually enjoying it!🤢
how can someone do this??
I agree with wat Rakhi Sawant said in Koffe with Karan "Agar logo nahi bakshte to janwaaron ko kya bakshegi?"

I saw this video last week and was speechless at seeing some one put a child to risk next to Cobra. I am sure the fangs were removed from this cobra but just looking at the video is cruelty to child IMHO.

Actually exploiting baby and Cobra both 😡

the video is disgusting 🤢 I am soooo mad at the baby's parents...may be it is the snake charmer's baby. I don't see any other parent doing this to their baby. It's disgusting and I am so mad right now 😡

😲 OMG! That video just makes me so mad! 😡 I don't know how serious India is about animal rights, but I sure hope some animal rights organization sees this video and does something about this. It just isn't right. 😒 I haven't lived in India very long, and I'd like to know - is this a fairly common scenario? Does this happen quite often? I mean, is this just some random event or do a large majority of snake charmers "charm" snakes this way? I always thought that it was just a matter of intact snakes swooning to the movement of the flute and that no snakes were injured as part of the entertainment. If this is how ALL snakes are treated by snake charmers, then of course this ought to be banned.

Oh, and about the baby...err...the baby's perfectly fine...it's the snake I'm worried about.

I am digusted with parents the most for putting innocent baby at rist for the fun of it. How sick people can get abt their own babies let alone snake too.

I am all for Human and Animal rights both 😃.
