Living with the King
Living with the King is a short video made in Agumbe by the all-women film team 'The Gaia People'. In Agumbe, where the Agumbe Rainforest Research Station is located, ordinary farmers and their wives and children have learned that king cobras aren't 'out to get you' and in fact are very valuable friends who eat the snakes that cause so many deadly problems in India and elsewhere in the range of the king cobra: cobras, Russell's vipers, kraits and pit vipers. Once we get the funds, this film will be dubbed in the regional languages and distributed in those places where king cobras are still greatly feared and killed on sight.

ಆಗುಂಬೆ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಶಿವಮೊಗ್ಗ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆಯ ಒಂದು ಊರು. ಪಶ್ಚಿಮ ಘಟ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಈ ಊರು ಒಂದು ಪ್ರವಾಸಿ ಸ್ಥಳ. ಇಲ್ಲಿನ ಪ್ರಕೃತಿ ಸೌಂದರ್ಯ ಅದ್ವಿತೀಯ. ಸಾಯಂಕಾಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಸೂರ್ಯಾಸ್ತದ ದೃಶ್ಯ,ವನ್ನು ನೋಡಲು ಸಾವಿರಾರು ಜನ ಬರುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಅಕ್ಟೋಬರ್ ತಿಂಗಳಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಆಕಾಶ ನಿರ್ಮಲವಾಗಿರುವುದರಿಂದ, ಮುಳುಗುವ ಸೂರ್ಯನ ದೃಶ್ಯ ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಮುದನೀಡುತ್ತದೆ. ಆದರೆ ಮಳೆಯೇ ಮಲೆನಾಡಿನ ಜೀವಾಳ. ಮಳೆಗಾಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಕಾದಿದ್ದು, ಸೂರ್ಯಾಸ್ತವನ್ನು ಕಾಣುವುದೇ ಒಂದು ಸಡಗರದ ಸನ್ನಿವೇಶ.
ಭಾರತದಲ್ಲಿ ಅತಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಮಳೆ ಬೀಳುವ ಸ್ಥಳಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಆಗುಂಬೆಯೂ ಒಂದು. ಈ ಕಾರಣಕ್ಕಗಿಯೆ ಆಗುಂಬೆಯನ್ನು ದಕ್ಷಿಣದ ಚಿರಾಪುಂಜಿ ಎಂದೂ ಕರೆಯುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಭಾರತದ ಏಕೈಕ ಶಾಶ್ವತ ಹರಿದ್ವರ್ಣವನ ಸಂಶೋಧನ ಕೇಂದ್ರ ಆಗುಂಬೆಯಲ್ಲಿದೆ. ಹೆಸರುವಾಸಿ ಉರಗತಜ್ಞ ರೊಮುಲುಸ್ ವಿಟೆಕರ್ ಆಗುಂಬೆಯನ್ನು ಕಾಳಿಂಗ ಸರ್ಪಗಳ ರಾಜಧಾನಿ ಎಂದು ಕರೆದಿದ್ದಾರೆ.
