i thought that all right we'll send someone out keep an eye on the snake until we get there. have been obvious all along and that it's on taiwan comes 1st mission on this sunday morning rainy season has begun in thailand and that means snake season has as well. snake catchers almost always work in pants because they never know what to expect attempting to catch one of the larger reptiles all alone would be too dangerous by cam and his colleagues set off with 2 vehicles or they would be working in their. banks maze of streets makes it difficult for some taiwan cam to find the address given by the court. looking for missing 114 this is p.d.

14 right there where is mr one now this a side street. and i. think it's been more than 20 minutes since the call came in and the snake catchers have to turn around. after another 5 minutes the firefighters finally arrive at the right place the caller is waiting impatiently in front of his house. armed with their gear the 2 men enter the property the snake has already begun to retreat. sensing the danger the snake has fled to the roof of an adjacent building.

call us when it comes down are you ok ok bye. leave or equipment won't reach the snake at that height. by that. maybe we could have caught it if we derived earlier. in the address was unclear so unfortunately it took a little longer. walks and now. they return to the station even if it didn't work out this morning so entire one come has already caught dozens of snakes you can't exactly say how many he also doesn't know how many are in the cages stacked up behind the station and that's the result of less than 2 weeks' work. when he began training to become a firefighter one can never imagine what he'd end up doing.

who are getting the fact that i'd also have to catch snakes made me nervous. but i learned a lot very quickly like which snakes are poisonous and which aren't i realize that they're not that scary. the next call comes in the woman on the phone is unable to give accurate details about the snake unfortunately this is not unusual explains the head of the fire station. it would help us if the callers could describe the snake tell us what it look. like or even better what kind of snake it is. most of them are obviously in panic thinking only help if there's a snake a snake in my house. it doesn't take some time one cam and his colleague has long to find the right address this time.

the lady of the house is relieved that helpers arrived. when my dad 1st we have to find out exactly where the snake is hiding. we have to see it with our own eyes so that we know whether it's poisonous or not the housekeeper says she saw the snake here between these flower pots. you describe the snake what color is a. got it call up when i went into the garden along the side of the house suddenly the snake snapped at me. luckily it missed my foot but only by a few centimeters so. some taiwan chum knows that snakes like to look for drying sparse like this one especially during rainy season anyone who needs junk in the

garden shouldn't be surprised if they suddenly find an unwanted gassed. thank you. take everything apart bit by bit. anyway. i. thank. that. after a brief discussion the man made. ok .

thank. you. thank you. this is the so-called rat snake it's about a metre learn. it may not be poisonous but should be handled with care. if it does bite you should always have the untreated type that has a very sharp teeth. rat snakes are especially agile and quite aggressive the firefighters have to use the extreme cannot to get better and. i feel good that tina every catch is different but that this one was fairly easy we knew whereabouts where the snake was hiding it also wasn't very big and a lot of the time we have to deal with pythons you know that's

a different caliber altogether for those we sometimes call in reinforcements to firefighters are not. what i like. because i had many people die. before they get back to the station the next emergency call comes in an uninvited visitor in the bedroom they better hurry. in line it's important to know the city shortcuts so you don't waste too much time in traffic jams we have to hurry all the time because there's always somebody waiting for help somewhere. where do they see this nick. not a snake or a monitor lizard. ok so this time we're not catching a snake but

a giant lizard let's go monitor lizards can grow up to 3 metres long they like to break into hen houses and catch young birds or eggs but the specimen hiding in the bedroom isn't that big apparently at least that's what the inhabitants of the house said. let's go have a look that was. ok where could appear. maybe under the sofa. or i already looked up there in the cabin. and i looked behind the air conditioner. well you know we've looked everywhere here no success unfortunately. this.

141. here we cannot fly anything. after returning to the fire station so lets the rat snake out of the back but the new home isn't much better. the cage hasn't been emptied for 14 days out in the wild most snakes can go without food for weeks so they aren't fed here every once in a while the nature conservation agency picks the snow example and sets them free in national parks. a few of the poisonous snakes are brought to this place bangkok's snake farm it's home to about 50 different species on the farm is very popular. locals as well as tourists one reason for that is the daily snake handling demonstration.

that you. might call. research on anti serums to save lives for example is also conducted here at the snake. tries to reassure us if you behave properly snakes are harmless he says they're also useful in keeping down the mountain rat population so other pests. i would like to make sure people are aware of the following it's completely normal to see snakes during the rainy season they're very afraid of us humans if you don't want snakes in your garden or house just have to make sure you don't offer the snakes

any place to hide. clear out your sheds or yards and you won't have a problem. without. soon he's off again to the next emergency. button office call. me thinking.
