Dhamnagar: The Bhadrak snake helpline team rescued as many as 106 baby cobras from a house at Paika Sahi of Samapur village near Dhamnagar in Bhadrak district Saturday morning.
According to reports, Bijay Bhuiyan, a resident of Samapur village, saw a cobra in a termite mound in his house few months ago.
He took care of the snake by giving it milk and food. Initially, he spotted around 20 baby cobras coming out of the termite mound.
