In old literature, I remember reading about people (religious leaders, perhaps?) putting bowls of milk out for cobras. Not sure if it was in the Jungle Book by Kipling. That makes more sense than forcing the snake to consume the milk. The bowls of milk might well draw prey animals in for the snakes.
