Keralite Snake Charmer

What is it about snake charmers that make them so interesting? It's the fact that they could get bit and die right? Well this guy told us he removed the cobra's fangs. Where's the fun in that?

Snake can in fact hear.... Although snakes lack an external ear or ear drum, their skin and bones pick up vibrations and transmit them to a functional inner ear. It was once believed that snakes could only detect vibrations transmitted through the ground, but it is now known that they can indeed pick up even airborne sounds this way.

Music DOES sooth the save beast.

haha the technique is called "circular breathing." He continuously breathes in through the nose as he exhales through the mouth.

Snakes do not chew their food. All snakes use their fangs only to inject venom unto it's prey. Anacondas do not have venom-injecting fangs, however they do have around 100 teeth on their mouth and yet still don't chew on their prey.

Hope this helped.

It doesn't eat. They just get a new snake when the old one dies of hunger. Snake charmers sometimes sew the mouth shut instead of removing the venom glands and/or fangs. It's a very cruel practice.

He's too scared for his life to stop playing

How does the snake eat if it has no fangs?
