An exhibit display sign, rotated on its side, is visible on a brown wall, adjacent to a glass enclosure containing a sandy and rocky habitat, likely for a snake. A person's hand holding a dark-colored smartphone hovers over the top right portion of the sign, possibly scanning a QR code or taking a picture. The sign details information about the "Rough-Scaled Sand Boa," identified by the scientific name "Gongylophisconicus," with "మరಳುహావు" (Maraluhāvu) in Kannada.
