Thats a big cobra.... I didn't know they got that big :S Again how does he keep it from biting him? Its got its hood flared, doesn't that mean it's mad?
That cobra in the picture is over 15’ long and is believed to be the largest venomous snake in captivity. She has ended the careers of two herpetologists. She is very defensive and will bite if given the opportunity. You keep it from biting by keeping the head at bay. When they are hooded, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are mad, they will also hood when curious and trying to get a better look at something.
