The spectacled cobra, named for the eyeglass design on its flared hood, shares with the Russell's viper the infamy of causing more human deaths than any other snakes.

Both are highly venomous and are found in the midst of vast populations of people in Southeast Asia.

The spectacled cobra eats rats, poultry, and frogs and is known to enter houses when hunting.

The Indian cobra's venom mainly contains a powerful post-synaptic neurotoxin and cardiotoxin. The venom acts on the synaptic gaps of the nerves, thereby paralyzing muscles, and in severe bites leading to respiratory failure or cardiac arrest.

The venom components include enzymes such as hyaluronidase that cause lysis and increase the spread of the venom. Envenomation symptoms may manifest between 15 minutes and 2 hours following the bite.

This snake is revered in Indian mythology and culture, and is often seen with snake charmers.

Unfortunately even things they like in india get fucked over. Most snake harmers have the snakes fangs and venom glands removed. Not good for the snake in any way.

I think the fangs grow back also. I've seen many videos where they GLUE the mouths shut. Fucking assholes.
