Cambodian villagers pray before collecting water from a white python, whose blessing is believed to cure rheumatism and other bodily ailments, in Battam Bang province, 350 km (217 miles) south of the Cambodian city Phnom Penh, June 26, 2006. Belief in the supernatural healing powers of animals such as cows, snakes and turtles is a relatively common phenomenon in Cambodia, where over a third of the population lives on under $1 a day and few can afford modern medicines.
