Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Legend has it that the "King of the Snakes" lives in the local forests. He looks like a big black lizard the size of a man. This lizard can grab a child and take him deep into the woods. To protect themselves from this dangerous reptile, people from Belarusian villages painted its image on the windows.
