Terrified housewife finds 15ft long king cobra under the kitchen sink
- 4 years ago
A housewife was terrified after going into the kitchen to cook dinner and finding a 15ft long KING COBRA under the sink.
Suthichart Kamburi, 45, was about to make fried rice when she opened the cupboard and noticed the killer reptile staring back at her.
The mother-of-two slammed the door and ran screaming out of the home in Trang, southern Thailand on Sunday (December 8) evening.
Suthichart said: "I was frightened seeing the cobra under the sink and just ran out as fast as I could. Then I composed myself and figured out what to do next.
"At first I did not know what species it was, just that it was very big. I calmed down and called the rescue service for help.''
Experienced snake handlers spent around 20 minutes using rods with lassos on the end to catch the enormous cobra. It was then put into a sack without anyone being harmed.
The team weighed the bag with the dark black reptile inside and it came in at 66Ibs. It was then released back into the wild several miles away.
Neighbours visited the house to check the number of the door, which they will use in their lottery numbers.
Suthichart added: ''I'm just happy the snake was caught without biting me as they are highly venomous.''
