Also known as the mountain wind, the king cobra is large and long, fast and highly venomous, it is extremely toxic, it is the largest venomous snake in the world, can secrete a large amount of highly venomous venom, and is one of the most dangerous and frightening venomous snakes in Asia.
According to folklore, it can "stand" up, so when encountering this poisonous snake, it must be a nightmare-like existence, and if this poisonous snake appears at home, it must be a nightmare that cannot wake up.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="13" > nightmare come true, and the big snake that appears in the home is indeed a king cobra</h1>
On the afternoon of August 2, when a peasant household in Husa Achang Nationality Township went out, he suddenly found a large snake at the door, sticking out his head, spitting out a letter, and was looking at it, when the farmer's feet were soft, and he almost fell in front of the big snake.
Husa Achang Nationality Township is located on the border between China and Myanmar, where the weather is hot, the rain is abundant, the tropical rainforest coverage rate is relatively high, farmers have some understanding of the snakes in the rainforest, this black paint also has a white dotted ring, as well as a flat snake head and a signature action, everyone knows that this is a cobra, for this highly toxic, few people can calmly deal with it.
So or quickly take out the mobile phone to call the police, after the police of the Husa Border Police Station received the alarm, the farmer described that it was a big snake entrenched in front of the door, knowing that there was a big job, the first time contacted the professionals of the Husa Forest Police Station for support.
Of course, around 16:00, when the police of Husa rushed to the scene, there was already a large group of people around, everyone was not too big, they were all watching this big snake, when the police came closer to see, good guys, it is more than 2 meters long, and it is not a cobra, it is a king cobra.
The police quickly evacuated the masses, the venom of this king cobra is not a joke, although it is not the most poisonous snake, but its amount of venom is too large, a king cobra venom can send away several people. After the evacuation, several forest police officers cooperated together, one attracted the eyes of the king cobra, and the other directly copied its back road and quickly threw the king cobra into a bag.
The forest police weighed it and registered it, good fellow, weighing up to 4 kilograms, which would be terrible if it hurt someone, and the king cobra has now been taken away and further processed.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="24" > a thin bag, can the poisonous fangs of the eye king snake really not bite out? </h1>
I believe that you have seen a surprising fact, the forest public security officers are carrying an almost transparent, thin plastic bag (in fact, it is a breathable gauze bag), I believe that even if you don't know how long the cobra's poisonous fangs are, it is estimated that this thin plastic bag can not block the bite of the poisonous snake, so when the policemen carry a plastic bag containing the poisonous snake, are they really not afraid of being bitten by the poisonous snake through the plastic bag? Really pinch them to sweat!
However, experienced friends must know that for snakes and other animals are snakeskin bags, in the past in the countryside often see snake catchers with a pocket to catch snakes, the bag mouth opens a lot of snakes, dense to see the scalp numbness, but never heard of snakes will bite people across the bag, why is this so?
Snakes don't bite when they put in a bag? What exactly is the principle?
Generally rarely use plastic bags to pack snakes, because the plastic bags are not sealed, long-term snakes will die of suffocation, normal should be breathable cotton pockets or snakeskin bags (breathable), about the snake into the bag does not bite people is out of the instinctive reaction of animals.
When the snake is in a dark or invisible environment, it will feel that the environment is safe, so the snake is like staying in its own nest, not intending to bite at all.
In fact, there are many wild animals like this, such as often seeing the staff in the documentary anesthetize the animal and then use a cloth strip to cover the eyes of the wild animal to prevent it from suddenly waking up, and the animals that are ready to load the car to migrate with a cloth strip to blindfold the eyes, and in an instant these animals will become like obedient cats.
Rhinos are blindfolded and airlifted
Of course, some timid animals will cause tension, so the safest approach is anesthesia + blindfold, this principle is mostly common in the animal kingdom, but humans are not, if blindfolded but more frightened, the human brain's judgment of danger has exceeded the experience of wild animals' perception of the surrounding environment, which is the difference in brain development.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="25" > encounter a king cobra, what should we do? </h1>
The king cobra is not a type of cobra, but is independent of the king cobra genus other than the cobra, with the largest domestic record of 3.8 meters, the highest foreign record is close to 5.6 meters, and the weight can reach more than 6 kg.
King cobra can be fatal in one bite, its venom secretion can reach up to 7 ml, a time can inject 200 ~ 500 mg of venom, poisoned people need a large number of antivenom serum to fight snake venom, according to the Department of Clinical Toxicology of the University of Adelaide in India, the fatality rate after being bitten by the king cobra is about 60%, so the king cobra is indeed a bit scary.
What to do when you encounter a king cobra?
Is it true that some people say that king cobras can spray poison? Of course, this is not true, but some cobras are sprayed with poison, and of course some cobras and vipers that cannot spray poison can occasionally spray poison. Therefore, king cobras generally do not spray poison.
For example, on October 9, 2016, a citizen found a "standing" king cobra in Nanjing Shishan Park, which is more than 1 meter high, according to the data, the "standing" height of the king cobra can reach 1/3 of the length, that is, this snake may be up to 4 meters long, which is a large king cobra.
Generally encountering a king cobra at home, if it is not a professional snake catcher, it is recommended to call the police. If encountered in the wild, quickly retreat, do not fight with the king cobra, win the battle without face, fight and lose may be fatal.
Where is the Achilles heel of the King Cobra?
If you really confront the king cobra, then be sure to understand where its fatal weakness is, the general snake's fatal weakness of three inches and seven inches are universal, for catching snakes is undoubtedly 3 inches is the most appropriate, in the head and neck position of the snake, it is difficult to bite your hand after scratching, but the king cobra is usually very large, after being caught three inches will be strangled, which has to be prevented, so it is not very professional players do not recommend to capture three inches.
Seven inches is the heart of the snake, and the king cobra "standing" state is very suitable for sweeping, so when you have to fight with the king cobra to the death, you may wish to take a fire stick to directly sweep past, the most fatal weakness of this long strip animal is the spine, the thousand jun rod sweep is directly the spine fracture, the snake is not dead and paralyzed.
However, when the snake is knocked to the ground, don't go over and watch, because even if the snake's spine is broken, the rest can still burst out and hurt people, that is, the chopped head can hurt people, and the "cold-blooded" animal of the snake is so terrible. However, it should be reminded that the king cobra is an animal in China that belongs to the Appendix II list of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), and is also one of the second-level protected animals in the List of Wild Animals under National Key Protection of China, which was just released in February 2021. Don't kill the king cobra.
What exactly is the King Cobra afraid of?
The soldier who surrenders without fighting is undoubtedly the best strategy, so what is the eye king snake afraid of? Is the legendary snake repellent three-piece set useful? For example, snake repellent powder, male yellow powder or sulfur powder, as well as ultrasonic snake repellents and wind oil, and even fox urine, smoke, diesel and mixtures recommended by foreign friends, as well as lime and pepper spray.
After experiments, it has been proved that male yellow powder and snake repellent powder (the main ingredients are also sulfur and male yellow, etc.) are somewhat useful for most snakes, while ultrasonic snake repellents and wind oil essence are useless, and mothballs and diesel are useless. So is the recommendation of foreign friends useful? Rex M. From the University of California Rex E. Marsh- Davis says none of this is valid!
So what exactly is the King Cobra afraid of? It is actually not afraid of male yellow or snake repellent powder, so this largest poisonous snake is not easy to deal with, can only hit the grass to scare a snake, let the snake escape, or clean up around the home, do not have any wild grass or let the snake have a hidden place, of course, the key is not to let the snake chase rats and other animals into the home, so it is really not easy to prevent.
