The king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) is the longest venomous snake in the world, with adults reaching lengths of over 5.5 meters. This species is primarily found in India, southern China, and Southeast Asia.
King cobras frequently prey on other snake species, both venomous and non-venomous. Additionally, they consume lizards, eggs, and some small mammals.
This snake typically avoids human encounters but becomes aggressive and combative when cornered. When attacking, it raises one-third of its body off the ground, staring directly into the eyes of its opponent, inflating its hood, revealing its fangs, and hissing continuously to intimidate its adversary.
According to National Geographic, the king cobra is the most dangerous venomous reptile in the world, capable of killing 20 adult humans or an elephant with a single bite.
