During the monsoon season, many snakes stray into human habitats as their burrows get flooded. Seeking dry and safe places, one such snake known as SANDBOA ended up inside a scooter's engine in Dombivli west. The scooter's owner noticed the movement and immediately called the Plant and Animal Welfare Society (PAWS ) organisation.
PAWS volunteer Rishikesh Surse rushed to the scene, safely extracted the snake from the scooter, and saved its life. The snake was then released back into its natural habitat.
