26 snake species-17 non venomous, 4 semi venomous, and 5 poisonous—were identified in Maharashtra's Bor Wildlife Sanctuary area. Far from its native environment, the investigation discovered python in dry regions of Bor Wildlife Sanctuary. In order to preserve food chains and maintain environmental balance, snake conservation is essential. It is advised that the diversity of snake species in the area be continuously monitored. India is home to 275 of the world‘s 3000+ snake species. Based on the findings, we suggest that it is critical to promote public knowledge of the importance of snakes as bio control agents and environmental indicators. Snakes, with their elongated, limbless bodies, are among the world's most specialized creatures. They are present in practically every type of environment. Snakes' long, thin bodies are extremely muscular, with internal organs distributed along the narrow cylindrical trunk. The Boidae family has the biggest non-poisonous snakes. Pythons are oviparous, while boas are ovoviviparous. Most snakes have definite usefulness as predators of dangerous rodents, insects, and so forth.
