00:00 We have already met a few male Cobra Hunters here in our program.

00:06 But let's put that aside for now, because a woman in Tarlac is the star of the show.

00:12 Let's meet Princess Tuklau.

00:15 Her brave search and rescue in the wilds is directed by Athena Impreal.

00:27 Is there someone lurking around you?

00:30 Is there someone you're looking for?

00:33 And a secret weapon to protect herself?

00:39 The Lurking Snakes!

00:43 If you encounter one of these snakes,

00:52 you should know how to scream.

00:55 Because Princess Tuklau is here to rescue you!

00:58 We have also met a few Snake Rescuers in our show.

01:13 We have met the Cobra Prince of San Pablo, Laguna.

01:20 And our friends Boss Lar and Zuma, the King Snakes of Tarlac.

01:25 But this job is not only for males.

01:29 In Tarlac, I met the Snake Whisperer, Princess Garcia, aka Princess Tuklau.

01:36 We are now here at Concepcion, Tarlac.

01:42 We will go to what they call the "Rescue of the Snakes".

01:47 Let's go!

01:50 Hi Princess! I'm Athena.

01:53 I'm the Rescue of the Snakes.

01:56 Princess Tuklau showed me each of the safety gear she uses when she has rescue operations.

02:04 This is what I use for my feet.

02:08 This is a Cobra Horn.

02:11 This is also for my feet.

02:14 So that it won't hurt my feet.

02:16 This is a rod for the snake.

02:19 This is for the tail.

02:21 And this is for the snake's tail.

02:24 This is the most important thing for us.

02:26 This is for detecting snakes.

02:28 Of course, you can't use this for your hands.

02:31 You should use it for your feet.

02:33 This is what we use for our feet.

02:35 This is the most important thing for us.

02:37 For detecting snakes.

02:38 This is a snake clamp.

02:42 When the snake's tail falls, we use this to hold it.

02:47 Is this really for your hands or you improvise?

02:50 Where do you use this?

02:52 For the snake's tail.

02:54 For the tail of the snake.

02:57 Then we put this inside the snake's tail.

03:00 Inside the snake's tail.

03:02 Yes, inside the snake's tail.

03:03 Because the snake can breathe here.

03:05 Ah, okay.

03:06 And they are safe here.

03:07 Instead of a bag.

03:08 Yes.

03:09 It's hot, it's a bag.

03:10 And it's easy to get a botox.

03:13 Like this.

03:14 Oh, you do this.

03:17 Yes.

03:18 So that when you spit, it won't hit your eyes.

03:21 Safety goggles.

03:24 Really?

03:25 Are there any chances that you really get spit?

03:29 Yes.

03:30 Many times.

03:32 Oh, really?

03:33 If it hits your eyes, it's a big problem.

03:36 You should try it.

03:37 You should try it?

03:38 Yes, I get spit.

03:40 What do you do to get it?

03:42 Just wash it?

03:43 Just wash it.

03:44 But it's hot.

03:45 Yes, it's hot.

03:46 So to prevent your eyes from getting splashed, you wear gloves.

03:51 Yes, like a rider.

03:52 Yes, like a rider.

03:53 This is how I do it.

03:54 Ah, okay.

03:55 What is this?

03:56 It's a glove.

03:57 It's called gloves.

03:58 Gloves, too.

03:59 You need to cover your hands.

04:03 Your hands are protected.

04:06 This is a flashlight for your eyes.

04:09 So that we can see the basement.

04:13 Can we use the ordinary flashlights for emergencies?

04:18 The ones that are in the emergency kits at home.

04:20 The ones that are in the emergency kits at home.

04:21 Yes, we can.

04:22 Yes, we can.

04:23 It's more convenient and clearer.

04:24 Their safety gear is always ready when they need help.

04:34 Today, Princess Duclao is preparing for a rescue operation.

04:39 In her vlogs, she talks to the cobras.

04:46 Can the cobra be calm?

04:48 If it doesn't move around too much.

04:51 It doesn't move?

04:52 Yes, and we have a connection to the ice.

04:56 So that it can be calm.

04:59 If it moves, I'll just poke it.

05:04 But if it's too much, there's a connection.

05:14 Good morning, guys.

05:15 Princess Duclao is back again to upload a new vlog.

05:18 As a woman, many are questioning her ability and courage as a cobra rescuer.

05:26 You said that you really want to rescue a cobra.

05:29 You've been interested in it since you were 13 years old.

05:33 Did anything discriminate you from doing this job?

05:36 Because you're a woman.

05:38 A lot of things, especially to my viewers.

05:41 Why is your job like that?

05:43 You're a woman, a cobra.

05:45 Why don't you look for a good job?

05:48 I was hurt because I don't have anything to do.

05:54 I just sleep.

05:56 I love what I do.

05:58 It's like a mentor to me.

06:01 I help my female colleagues.

06:04 Princess is a young girl, but she already knows a lot about cobras.

06:10 Her father, Rodrigo, is also a snake rescuer.

06:14 When I was 5 years old, I saw a cobra for the first time.

06:18 So, because you were exposed to it, and that's what your father does,

06:25 that's what you're interested in, right?

06:27 Yes, and he's not with us in the rescue.

06:31 We're just a team of two, me and my brother.

06:36 We're just a team.

06:38 How did you start to be interested in rescuing cobras?

06:45 I was with my neighbors.

06:49 I was with them when they were looking for a cobra.

06:53 When they were looking for a cobra, I was the one who caught it.

06:58 Rod's father is also very proud of his son, Princess.

07:02 I'm stopping him, but he's better than me.

07:04 Princess taught me.

07:06 If we say there's a cobra there, even if there's a lot of wood,

07:09 it will happen.

07:10 Because there are two.

07:12 He's good at spotting.

07:14 Even in the open space, I lose.

07:16 I can see the open space from the inside, but from the outside, I have a hard time.

07:23 That's what I'm trying to do from the outside.

07:26 Princess doesn't stop when they have to rescue the cobras.

07:30 Some of their safety gear are donations from those who support them.

07:35 Meanwhile, they also earn money by vlogging their rescue missions.

07:42 [music]

07:54 Princess says that it's not easy to catch and rescue the cobras.

07:59 When we're rescuing, our energy is low.

08:02 Because if we catch it, it's hard.

08:05 And if that happens, you're not going anywhere in the community.

08:09 Yes, we're so far away.

08:12 We were helotipped.

08:14 We're still in the mountains.

08:15 Our visit to Princess was also perfect because they have a trip to the mountains.

08:20 To see Princess in action, we accompanied them.

08:25 Princess, is this the place?

08:27 Yes, this is the mountain.

08:30 The mountain.

08:31 After a few hours,

08:37 we're here in an area in the mountains, in Concepcion, Tanlac.

08:42 This is where the cobra is found.

08:44 I hope Princess can find the snake that they saw here.

08:49 What did you see here?

08:51 What are those, Pars?

08:53 Brown rat snake.

08:54 A non-ferroman snake.

08:57 This is the one.

08:59 Where is it?

09:00 It has a different tail.

09:02 Oh, it's skin.

09:04 How long does it take to shed its skin?

09:07 It takes about one week.

09:10 One week is six days.

09:12 It depends on the smell.

09:16 Does it have a smell?

09:17 Yes.

09:18 Maybe you're not used to it.

09:22 Does it get allergic?

09:24 No.

09:25 What does it smell like?

09:26 It means that it doesn't have a smell.

09:28 It's been around for a long time.

09:31 It just passed by to leave.

09:35 What does it smell like when it's just shed its skin?

09:38 It smells like dead rats.

09:43 That's how it is with us.

09:45 Okay.

09:46 So it means that it's just around when it smells like that.

09:51 Yes, it's just around.

09:53 But when it's like that, it's gone.

09:57 It's gone.

09:58 Even though we were not lucky enough to find and rescue a cobra in this place,

10:02 what's important is that the people living here are safe.

10:07 It's been a long time since it rescued a snake.

10:11 Luckily, the princess is still alive.

10:15 According to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources,

10:20 what the princess is doing is dangerous.

10:23 Animal rescuers need to have enough knowledge about wild animals.

10:30 The snakes that the princess is rescuing are being ensured to be safe

10:36 and released to a place far from people and their homes.

10:40 But the DNR has a reminder.

10:43 This is what we call the Republic Act 9147 or the Wildlife Act.

10:49 So they need to go through the technical matters about how to rescue our wildlife in our area.

11:01 Like the snakes and cobras that we know are damaging our environment

11:13 or the community level of our people.

11:17 Sir, do you have a protocol for rescuing snakes?

11:22 They need to have proper accreditation.

11:27 But as of this time, there are no parameters on those things.

11:32 To ensure the proper coordination of the group with the government,

11:36 we also brought Princess Tuklau to the nearest office of the DNR for their accreditation.

11:44 But Sir, there are no police officers yet.

11:50 We don't have a police officer yet but it's a good idea to have an accreditation.

11:54 If someone gets caught, is it okay for them to surrender here?

12:01 Or they can just leave the place where there are no people?

12:08 They should surrender here officially.

12:10 Because we are already doing that here. Many people have surrendered to us.

12:15 Not only snakes and cobras, we also received other wildlife.

12:22 We are just bringing them to our rescue center.

12:25 If you get caught by the snakes here, can they be caught even on weekends?

12:29 Just call us.

12:31 Princess Tuklau's courage and bravery to ensure the safety of animals and humans is very impressive.

12:40 But let me remind you, don't just imitate this because you need proper knowledge and training for this.

12:50 I am Athena Imperial, with "I Isang Brigada."
