"The man has now taken up a senior position, and when confronted, he said he has no recollection of the incident," the spokesman said.An AVA spokesman said the case is under investigation. AVA has issued guidelines on the proper handling of snakes to pest control and wildlife management agencies in Singapore.He said:"A couple of people sent me the links and when I saw it, I was horrified.
He urged the public to call the Acres wildlife rescue hotline at 97837782 for help, instead of pest control firms which may not know the correct way to handle animals. Mr Sankar Ananthanarayanan, 24, who co-founded The Herpetological Society of Singapore, said:"This is apparent abuse with no respect shown to the animal.
"There should be clear guidelines on how to handle snakes that prioritise animal welfare and the handler's safety."Wildlife consultant Subaraj Rajathurai said:"In my 30 years of handling snakes, I never once had to put a foot on a snake or throw them. Such abusive practices have no place in Singapore."
