As per news website Thaiger, locals in the Thai province of Krabi informed concerned authorities after the snake snuck into a palm plantation and was trying to hide in a septic tank.
Naewhaad released the king cobra in its natural habitat after catching it and said cobra could probably be looking for its mate. Recently, locals had killed another cobra.
