  • The Asian (or Monocled) Cobra is a dramatic and endangered snake.

    Damn they're a beautiful snake. I love the King, but these are the beautiful ones. They're very flighty though, where the King seems more relaxed, for a reason, I guess, when you're the King, you can afford to be a bit relaxed, knowing you could kill everyone stone dead.

      I almost got bitten by one that I didn't notice while walking on a bike path by the river here in Taipei. I didn't know it was there until I heard the loud hiss it makes when striking, but fortunately I was out of range. I saw the head retreating into the bush near my right leg, and I was within a foot and a half of it. How many inches I was out of striking range I don't know, but I had nightmares for a week about it and wish they'd get some mongooses (either single gendered or neutered) from India to wipe the cobras out. Instead, they are a protected species here.

    Snake venom extraction is terribly dangerous and risky.
    I would think that in these days of kevlar vests which stop a bullet and NASA who can put a human on the moon could design a pair of gloves that would resist the powerful strike of a snake's fangs ? Is it so difficult ?

    •  6 років тому +1

      Rajaram S some use chainmail gloves and those work great..but alot don't like them because it slows your hands down and feels clunky

    • @brainstorm8778
      @brainstorm8778 Рік тому +1

      When you've raised the snakes from hatchlings and done this multiple times a day for many decades, you don't need them. And the gloves can make it harder to accurately manouevre and even hold the snake. Experience, patience, caution and respect are all that's required. Plus antivenom on standby :)

    The video says that the cobra is "still" common in many areas of asia. Unfortunately, they are a protected species here in Taiwan. I'd prefer their protected species status be revoked and to have a bounty put out on them. I had a close encounter with one when I was walking on a sidewalk next to a river in Taipei. I didn't know it was there until I heard the loud hiss it makes when striking, and after I jumped away I noticed its head retracting into the dense brush between the sidewalk and the river. Fortunately I wasn't bitten, and indeed cobras strike even from out of range as a warning, but it was a very close call. That head was about a half a meter from my leg when I saw it, but I don't know how many inches I was from getting a bite. There are a lot of stray dogs in that park (Taiwan doesn't capture and kill them like in the USA, and people who get tired of their dogs just let them loose in the park), and stray dogs don't seem likely to get antivenom after a cobra bite.

    • @evan1423
      @evan1423 7 років тому +31

      Not at all, I have been keeping snakes for many years and due to snakes secretive nature and how stressed the can be in a large environment will cause real issues for that animal. I often take my snakes out of their tubs into a room and allow them to stretch out for 30 minutes, I often find them jammed between a chair and a wall as they want to feel safe. So these tubs are the best things for these animals allowing us in captivity to best attempted to recreate natural type environments as many snake species live in rat/rabbit warrens all their lives, as they eat the animals that live in these tunnels and stay in there for weeks to digest their food. I hope this allows you to understand the kindness shown to these amazing animals in the racks they are housed in. :)

    • @TheDragiix3

      Snakes feel very comfortable in confined spaces, they prefer darkness. That's why all zoos offer their snakes hiding places into which they will squeeze themselves, there they feel safe and can relax.
