Mad Spitting Cobra

Here is what happens when you wake up a Spitting Cobra and he gets up on the wrong side of the rock.

Check out all the venom he spit at me.

Re: Mad Spitting Cobra

Anyone know if there is any effect to oral ingestion of the venom (mammalian or reptilian?). Was just wondering, if say he spit some and it got into his water bowl, and he then drank it? I guess its not meant to be orally ingested by anything, was just wondering?
very handsome though

it is my understanding that it will have no affect, unless you have some sort of open sore. I'm far from an expert though.

Venom is not harmful if ingested. So long as there are no open cuts in your mouth/throat.

Poison on the other hand is a different story.

I think that would make it impossible for most venomous snakes to eat anything they kill.

Re: Mad Spitting Cobra

The crazy thing is that I heard they're dead accurate with their spits. Simply amazing.

When he is out and spits at me, he never misses the face shield. Without the shield, he would hit my eyes every time.

i'm thinking a spitting Cobra would be one of,if not thee most dangerous snakes to keep or work with,due to the reach of their venom

thanks for sharing,its a great looking snake
