The video opens with Hausla explaining that he is visiting a village in Odisha after getting a call about a king cobra hiding in a storage room. Initially, he shows around the area and also introduces his work process. Soon, he enters a room filled with hay and starts removing them. Within moments, a snake starts slithering away and he catches it. Then, he starts removing some more hay and explains that there is another snake nearby. Soon, he discovers another king cobra which is around 9-foot-long. The video ends with Hausla rescuing the snakes and urging everyone to get in touch with authorities if they spot snakes instead of harming the reptiles.
