A pair of brothers;
Yang Xunyi and Yang Xunlun in China manage a farm of 50,000 snakes on a daily
basis.The pair run a 3.3 acre snake farm, which includes 30,000
cobras in Chongqing, a major city in south-west China.
Xunyi, 40, and his younger brother Mr Xunlun have been in
charge of the farm for six years. And it is certainly not for the faint-hearted.
Xunyi, 40, said: 'I have been bitten numerous times, which
all happened when I fed them. When you are bitten, you have to squeeze out the
poison immediately and wash the wound with a large amount of water.'
He said he treated the wound with his home-made balm and
medicines instead of visiting hospital.
The farm has 20 workers, all of whom have to go through an
intensive three-month training programme before they are allowed to work on the
site.
