LIVING WITH THE KING   

​

This is a short video made in Agumbe by the all-women film team "The Gaia Group." In Agumbe, where the Agumbe Rainforest Research Station is located, ordinary farmers and their wives and children have learned that King Cobras aren't "out to get you," and in fact are very valuable friends who eat the snakes that cause so many deadly problems in India: spectacled cobras, Russell's vipers, kraits and pit vipers. Once we get the funds, this film will be dubbed in the regional languages and distributed in those places where King Cobras are still greatly feared and killed on sight. 

     Thanks for watching!
