Mangaluru: How would you feel, if you just see a cobra at a distance? Nothing much but halt right there? Right? What if it is just right in front of you when you are on a ride? You would be totally freaked out? Isn’t it?
Yes, this was exactly what a rider felt, when he encountered a baby cobra, lifting its hood right in front of him, from the speedometer gauge.
Marakada resident Baddruddin Kuloor was travelling on his Bullet bike when he confronted a baby cobra. He immediately took his bike to the roadside and parked it. Later he rang up a snake expert Gangaiah, who rushed immediately to the spot and rescued it.
