A snake rescuer saved a cobra’s life last week by helping it regurgitate a plastic bottle it had swallowed. <br /><br />The incident occurred in a village near the South Indian town of Sirsi. <br /><br />The cobra had entered the house of Munaf in Landakanahalli village. <br /><br />It ate an egg and then swallowed a plastic bottle that was lying in the backyard. <br /><br />The bottle made it sick and the cobra was unable to move. The family saw the inert cobra in their home, panicked and called Prashant Hulikal, a snake rescuer. <br /><br />He caught the snake, helped it regurgitate the bottle, though the egg also came out with it. <br /><br />The animal was later released in a nearby forest.
