Cobra Venom extraction in Bangkok

BANGKOK, THAILAND - JULY 11: A cobra is milked of its venom at Queen Saovbha Memorial Institute in Bangkok, Thailand on July 11, 2023. Queen Saovbha Memorial Institute, a research center associated with the Thai Red Cross Society, was established in 1923 as the "Bangkok Snake Farm." The research establishment has raised venomous snakes for venom extraction and production of antivenom medicine supplied primarily to farmers, hospitals, and people living in Thailand and surrounding countries in the region, where venomous snakes are endemic. The institute also serves as a museum to inform the general public about snakes in Thailand. (Photo by Matt Hunt/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
