Snakes bites nearly 200 people in TharParkhar

THAR: In order to breed and excrete their venoms, Snakes came out of their burrows after the rains in the Thar Desert.

According to the health department, around 200 people were bitten by snakes in Tharparkar this month and were brought to hospitals for treatment.

According to doctors, anti-snake venom injections are used to neutralize the snake venom, which is used in a minimum of 7 to 10 doses on a patient.

There are more than 10 species of snakes in the forests of the Thar Desert, of which neurotoxic and musculotoxic are the most dangerous.

After the rains, snakes have their breeding days, during which they have to come out of their burrows and also excrete their venom from their bodies.

Naturally, this stage of snake breeding poses a danger to every living being.

However, in another development, the Lahore Zoo, a favorite tourist destination, saw a chaotic scene on New Year’s Day as visitors were greeted with a surprise increase in the entry fee.

The private company that has taken over the management of the zoo, under a Rs500-million contract, introduced a new entry fee structure, which raised the cost of admission to Rs300.

This action provoked several protests from the visitors who had come from many cities to visit the zoo with their families. The increased fee was considered too exorbitant and unfair by many visitors who found themselves boiling out in anger and opted to leave from there in protest.

The bundling of the tickets, which included the official zoo entry ticket of Rs 100 and an extra Rs 200 entry fee for the snake house, was the item of controversy.
