The Snake Park is situated next to the Guindy National Park and is a popular spot with most visitors to the city. Established in 1972, the Madras Snake Park Trust (MSPT) has been home to a wide range of snakes, from the deadly King Cobra to adders, pythons, vipers and other reptiles.



The Snake Park in Chennai gained statutory recognition as a medium zoo from the Central Zoo Authority in 1995. The Madras Snake Park is slated to become a nodal point for captive breeding of endangered pythons in the country, especially the Indian rock python (Python Molorus) and reticulated python (Python Reticulatus).
