Correct

should
would

for

between
of

too-odd
two-odd

has/interviewing
had/interviewed

no error

Please note: there are two errors in the fifth line but there is no
error in the sixth line, maybe the word 'interviewing' would have
been in the sixth line as per the original question

Snakes are worshipped and feared by many in our country
Only 300 out of the 2700 known species are venomous
