Dung’s son with the white snake | Local residents say they have never seen such a strange snake before. Tran Quoc Hung, a local resident, said: “I’m over 50 years old and this is the first time in my life I have seen such a strange snake.”
Dung said that he purchased the snake from a local resident as the person believed the strange snake was ominous. He feeds the snake small eels, once every three or four months.
Hearing about the strange snake, a man from Phung Hiep commune in Hau Giang province came to see it with his own eyes and asked Dung to sell the snake to him for VND6mil. However, Dung said he does not want to sell the snake because it is very special.
