Cobras, vipers and pythons are quite common in people's everyday lives in Vin Sonh, a little Vietnamese village close to Hanoi. They are used to make medicines and alcohol but they especially appreciated in gourmet restaurants. 

People started to breed them in the late 1970s due to requests from neighboring China. Kim Van Hoc was one of the first start the business. Today, he is the chairman of the snake breeder's organization. But he is also tired and would like to pass on his job. Unfortunately it looks like no-one wants to have it.
