Wanna learn how to catch snakes, here is a teacher who teaches this trick. Meet Chaman Singh Chauhan from Udaipur, the city of lakes in India's desert state of Rajasthan, who takes classes on snakes, their habits, their habitats and even how to catch them!!!!!!!!

Everything and anything on snakes is taught in his class - their identification, their ways, antidotes to their bites and also anecdotes associated with the slithering beings.

Chauhan, a snake lover, has been taking these classes for nearly four years now at his home in Udaipur and that too free of cost. His classes on snakes attracts 10-15 people each session. And his students could be anywhere between 9 years old and 25 years old.

While his theory classes look like any normal tuition session, his practical lessons - complete with live snakes for demonstration - could give anyone a fright. Snakes are caught for imparting knowledge to students and they are later released in the nearby forest area, he clarified.

'I tell my students that in Rajasthan over 250 species of snakes are found and of these only four are poisonous. Cobra and viper are the most poisonous and most of the snakes do not come near human territory,' explained Chauhan, who is considered an encyclopedia on snakes.

'We have a lot of misconceptions about snakes. Most of the snakes are man's friend as they save crops in the field by eating rats and other rodents,' he pointed out.
