Mysuru: A man was in for a shock, when he came across a snake coiled inside a crocs sandal, left in the compound of the house at Karthik Layout in Dattagalli yesterday. The family member heaved a sigh of relief after herpetologist Snake Shyam rescued the reptile.
The snake, mostly a baby, identified as Russell’s Viper, was seen inside the slipper, when the man came out of the house. He informed Shyam, who rescued the baby snake in a bottle, before creating awareness among the curious people gathered around.
