In this Jan. 27, 2013 photo, an assistant to snake handler Saintilus Resilus prepares to wash snakes before using them in pre-Lenten Carnival performances in Petionville, Haiti. Resilus is one of millions of people scrambling to get by in a country where the unemployment rate hovers around 60 percent and most get by on $2 a day. Resilus has used snakes and other animals to earn a little money since at least 1974. (AP Photo/Dieu Nalio Chery)
