Most of these people do this because they don't know what they are doing. It has to do with religion and such. What your wife's physican failed to tell you is that many of the snakes die too. Probably more than survive. My PI is also from India and he has told me stories about is neighbors force feeding cobras with milk and all other kinds of crap. Neadless to say many of the snakes die. He said it is horrible.
