The Serpent

A close up pic of a king cobra with a colorful background to ad a cool new look to your browser. One of the most dangerous and most feared animals on earth. The king cobra is the largest venomous snake in the world. The cobra is different from other snakes for many reasons. They have a hood that they use as a sign of aggression along with a hiss to intimidate enemies, and they have more control over their upper body movement. Remember Steve Irwin? He would pick a snake up by the tail and it would dangle helpless? I bet you never saw him try that with a cobra. Check out the attached youtube video where he tries to catch an Egyptian cobra.
