Illegal trading of wildlife has emerged as one of the most formidable challenges during the pandemic in central India's Madhya Pradesh on November 21. The incident took place in the Indore district.

Visuals feature the Red Sand Boa snakes confined inside a container after being rescued from the smugglers, resulting in a rare sight. Following this, the reptiles slither inside the transparent box while the onlookers catch a glimpse of the serpent and behold the occurrence.

The cops from the Gautampura Police Station rescued two Red Sand Boa from four miscreants and arrested them. Moreover, they seized some items from their possession, along with Rs. 30,000 (USD 403) and two bikes. Besides, the accused were identified as Chaganlal, Dinesh, Vinod, and Maheshchand, while an investigation against them under the Wildlife Protection Act and other sections is underway. Furthermore, one snake was 35 inches long and weighed 720 grams (1.5 lbs), while the other was 40 inches long and weighed almost 1,200 grams (2.6 lbs).
