A four-feet-long cobra was rescued from a warehouse in northwest Delhi's Jahangirpuri area, an NGO said Monday.

On Sunday, two officials from the Wildlife SOS rescued the snake.

"Being one of the four most venomous snake species to be found in India, our team had to exercise a lot of caution while conducting the rescue to avoid any unnecessary casualties," said Kartick Satyanarayan, the CEO and co-founder of Wildlife SOS.

In another incident over the weekend, the NGO rescued a five-feet-long rat snake from a farmhouse in Noida sector-126.

Both snakes are currently under observation and will be released back into the wild once deemed fit, the NGO added.
