Why to visit Parassinikkadavu Snake Park
The park is home to approximately 150 reptile species, ranging from crocodiles to lizards and snakes, as well as endemic and migratory uncommon aquatic bird species. Wildlife aficionados and animal lovers will find the variety of creatures and their admirable characteristics highly pleasing. The amazing characteristics of these animals will leave you speechless. The park is dedicated to the preservation and conservation of snakes, which are rapidly going extinct in many species. In a live presentation, trained individuals play with and 'interact' with a variety of snakes, including cobras and vipers, in an attempt to dispel myths and superstitions surrounding snakes. It has also been suggested that a laboratory be established here to harvest venom from snakes for research purposes.
