Kathmandu. Since childhood, we have been taught to run away 4 miles away as soon as we are called a snake, most people have a kind of fear in their minds. Our fear of snakes is not innate, but developed much later.

In fact, more than 1000 people die every year due to snakebite all over the world. Many people still think that all snakes are poisonous and die as soon as they bite. However, out of more than 3400 snakes discovered worldwide, only about 700 are poisonous, and only about 200 snakes have poison that can kill humans.

So far, 89 species of snakes have been recorded in Nepal and only 18 of them are poisonous enough to kill humans. King Cobra (Raj Goman) and Banded Karate (Laxmi Nag) are among the most dangerous venomous snakes found in Nepal. But both these snakes are very shy and feed themselves by eating other snakes. That’s why they don’t want to waste their venom unnecessarily, and there are very few cases of people being bitten by these two snakes.

Some species of snakes do not want to waste venom and also bite dry. Snakes play a very important role in stabilizing the number of rats, frogs, lizards, birds in our environment. The most common poisonous snakes found in Nepal are Goman, Karaet, Hareu, Tiger Snake, etc.

Lack of arable land, garbage in water sources, collision with vehicles, and the tendency to kill people are causing problems in snake conservation. If we do not pay timely attention to snake conservation, then in the future our fields will be filled with rats and streams and frogs, which will have a big negative impact on our agriculture, agriculture and environment.
