Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav visited Indore’s Kamala Nehru Zoological Museum Tuesday morning prior to the Cabinet meeting to be held in Indore. He also gifted two male King Cobra to the zoo.
CM Mohan Yadav released the King Cobras brought from Peelikula Biological Park in Karnataka in the Snake Park. Indore is not the natural habitat of King Cobra. CM appreciated the habitat built by the zoo management for King Cobra.
As per the instructions of Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav, special facilities have been created in the zoo for breeding of King Cobra for snake conservation for better eco-system. Till now there was a female king cobra in the zoological museum, now with the arrival of male king cobra, breeding will be possible naturally which will prove beneficial for the eco system.
King cobra is known for its length, poison and unique behavior. It is the longest poisonous snake in the world, which can be up to 18 feet long. King cobra is considered to be one of the most intelligent snakes, because it changes its hunting strategy according to the circumstances. Female king cobras are different from other snakes because they make a nest and hatch eggs.
King cobras are beneficial for biodiversity and eco system and are called friends of farmers.
CM Dr. Yadav visited the Bird Park located in the zoological museum. He was overwhelmed to see the diversity and different species of birds in the Bird Park. He fed the birds with his own hands. Apart from this, Chief Minister Dr. Yadav saw ostrich, pocket monkey and other animals during his visit to the zoo.
