A cobra used to come into a house every day. Sometimes it drank chicken eggs. Sometimes it broke kitchen dishes and pots.
One day, this snake got into a fight with a mother bird and killed her. The family was scared of the snake, but they didn’t want to kill it.
One day, a snake catcher came from the city. At that time, the snake was inside the house. After searching for a long time, the snake catcher caught it by the tail and played with it in the courtyard.
At the end, the snake felt very tired and fell asleep on the floor. The villagers were surprised to see how a snake catcher could discourage a poisonous snake. The village thought he was very intelligent and praised him.
When the snake catcher caught hold of him by the hand, thinking he was tired, the snake, being fierce, hit him quickly in the hand. He screamed and repeated it with a stick.
The snake catcher put the snake in a bag and told the people, ‘Don’t mess with a poisonous snake. It can really hurt people. It’s good to know that every snake spreads its venom in a different way. Similarly, you shouldn’t trust people easily. Everyone has different skills when it comes to lying.’
The snake catcher had taken medicine to counter the snake’s venom, so it couldn’t harm him. He felt relieved.
