Students spotted a five-foot-long rat snake outside the central library on the JNU campus. A team comprising two snake rescuers from SOS Wildlife conducted the rescue operation and the rat snake
was later released into the natural habitat.
“We received information about a snake in the campus from a group of students who were on their way to the library. We then contacted SOS wildlife for help,” said Harish Kumar, Security Officer.
Geeta Seshamani, Co-founder of Wildlife SOS, said, “Rat snakes are harmless to human beings and they mostly feed on rodents, lizards, birds and small mammals.”
