You know there are a lot worse things going on in third world countries with children.

After visiting one last May I would have a hard time expressing what I saw.

5 year old children were in fact not 5 but 12 or 14. Their stunted growth from poor diet and drinking bad water makes them sick year round. A lot of them die. I saw people defecatiing in the middle of the street, Dead bodies left on sidewalks for days. ect

Most children are working at age 5 and are involved in prostitution or begging.

I could go on but I don't see anything that bad from the video. At least the parents care enough that the child looks well taken care of and not neglected and abused like most children born in these places.. The snake was just slapping the child a bit. This is more of a cultural thing just like people in Hawaii go to church in swimsuits which would be taboo in georgia or most other states...

You know - Rana draytonii use to be Rana aurora draytonii because they look extremely similar to Rana aurora (what use to be Rana aurora aurora) it turns out that Rana aurora is closer to Rana cascadae than it is to Rana draytonii.

The snakes mouth is sewn shut. This is a practice done with cobras to make the peole around think he is doing something special.

that does look to be the case after looking at it a bit closer, and as you mentioned......that is very common as well as yanking the glands and ducts, ....but even simpler.
