Interesting facts
  • King cobras are the largest venomous snake in
    the world. They can grow up to 18 feet long in
    the wild. A king cobra also has the ability to
    deliver a dry bite which is when the snake
    injects no venom into its target. When it feels
    threatened it opens its hood (expands the skin on
    its neck) to warn predators. it is also the only
    species of snake able to spit poison

3
Diet
  • The king cobras diet consists mostly of
    smaller snakes, rodents, lizards and birds. One
    of the hunting tactics of the cobra is to spit
    poison to disable (blind) its prey. After it
    bites and injects venom into its prey and eats
    it. Sometimes the snake bites its prey then lets
    go and waits for the poison to kill it (except
    for birds when the bird flies of it could get to
    far from the snake.

Vital organs
  • Three of the most important organs are in the
    head and neck. These are the Brain Heart and
    Poison gland. The stomach intestines run down its
    long body same for the lungs. Its fangs are a
    half inch long and are hollow, otherwise poison
    would not be able to flow through.
