The python was handed over to the Forest Department officials. The chances of human being to come in contact with the natural habitat of snakes and vice versa increases as residential areas in and sound the State capital is covered with lush green cover especially during monsoon. In the country as such there are about 21 species of snakes in the region which only four are venomous and out of the four Russell Viper and Indian Cobra are found in and around Bhopal. Majority of non-poisonous snakes also creates stir among the commoners as they are not aware about the difference between poisonous and non poisonous snakes. The only snake park located in Van Vihar National Park brings in as a platform to educate about the snakes where snake shows are conducted. The snake rescue centre in Van Vihar has the capacity to accommodate only 60-80 snakes. The snakes which are captured by snake catchers are usually kept in Roshanpura rescue centre and from there it is released in to Ratapani Sanctuary.
