Gowri Shankar spends his life handling snakes. Armed only with a long stick and bag he races to rescue snakes that have found their way into houses in the towns near Bangalore in Southern India. His speciality is the most feared snake of all - the King Cobra - and he almost died rescuing one. (Photo credit: H.Vinod Gowda)
