Millions of 2,000 species of snakes live in this most dangerous place in the world


Rio de Janeiro, 8, August, 2020, Saturday

About 120 km from Sao Paulo, Brazil, is an island called Kweimanda Grade, also known as Snake Island. Spread over an area of ​​2.50 lakh square meters, the island is home to not one or two but 2,000 species of snakes. The snakes on the island are five times more venomous than other snakes, so the government has banned them from visiting the island. However, some researchers and scientists continue to visit the island at the risk of their lives with the permission of the government. However explorers also do not dare to go inside the island only to return closer to the coastal area.


Snakes have also been spotted on Kweimanda Grade that dive into the air to catch their prey. There are special snakes that are not found anywhere else in the world. The yellowish golden lancehead viper snake of the peat viper species is very rare. The Viper is priced at Rs 15 lakh in the international market. It is estimated that the island is home to more than two million Pit Viper species of snakes. Because of the island's rare snakes, some people risk their lives to enter the island illegally. The venom of this snake is used in medicine. There have been hundreds of incidents in which people who went to smuggle snakes have lost their lives.


All Brazilians are aware of what happened on this island. It is believed that snakes were not seen until a lighthouse was built on Kweimanda Grade. If there were already such a large number of snakes, a light house could never have been built. An employee of the Navy Force lived with his family at the lighthouse. Suddenly, peat viper snakes broke into the house and bit it. The family's corpses were found on the island by food and supplies staff at the lighthouse. Suddenly, the mystery of where such a large number of snakes came from was not clear. Today the island is considered one of the most dangerous places on earth. The man who arrives here is very unlikely to return because the serpents, not the men, rule here.
