A two-meter-long black snake seen climbing a tree in Diyarbakir on July 10, 2024. Due to climate change and the fact that the air temperature has increased by 5 degrees from the seasonal normal, snakes have increased, especially in the eastern and southern cities of Turkey. Veterinarian Siyar Baran, who lives in the city of Diyarbakir and monitors snakes, stated that the 2-3 meter long black snakes, which are widely seen, are non-venomous and have many benefits to nature, and called for them not to be killed.
