New Delhi, Aug 19 (UNI) National Geographic in India has announced a fresh season of its thrilling wildlife television series 'Snakes SOS: Goa’s Wildest', with the power couple- Ben and Louise.

This season, viewers will get to experience one of the longest rescues that Ben and Louise have ever attempted - a python stuck in a well that needed 25 days of waiting, tracking and finally a fire brigade that helped Ben get the python out of the well.

The series will follow the lives of Benhail Antao and Louise Remedios, who are luxurious wedding planners by profession and wildlife rescuers by passion and capture some of their riveting snake rescue operations in Goa.

The duo will be seen battling the Goan heat and racing across the city to rescue some of the wildest reptiles that are seen crawling in the city.

The 10-part series will give viewers an up-close and personal experience of the techniques used by the duo as they also go about busting myths associated with the species.

"At National Geographic, we believe in bringing our viewers relevant stories that create impact and drive meaningful conversations about the world we live in. Snakes have always been an integral part of Indian mythology and culture and with the series - 'Snakes SO'’, we hope to instill in people a sense of responsibility and affection for the species," said a National Geographic spokesperson.

"On the heels of a super successful Season 1, we are glad to have Ben and Louise take us all on another action fueled journey to enlighten, entertain and educate our viewers about the world of snakes," the spokesperson added.

"We are extremely happy with the immense love and support that we received for the first season and with a credible brand like National Geographic, we were able to raise awareness around snake rescues, educate viewers about the importance of snakes around our surroundings and how to co-exist with them.

"We are excited to share the thrill with our viewers all over again and look forward to treating our viewers with some interesting rescues while also instilling empathy in people towards our beautiful wildlife," said Ben and Louise.

'Snakes SOS' is produced by Mike Pandey’s Riverbanks Studio. It will air every Monday-Tuesday at 8 pm from August 20 on National Geographic.
