Funny story..I was given what I though was a large Eastern Milk Snake years ago..Kept it two years. It ate lizards and mice. Crazy though? I took it to a Herp Vet because she was not eating right.I took it out to hand to him and he was like " PUT IT DOWN ". Turned out Sybil was a Coral Snake .I lucked out he said.

What I’ve noticed over the years of watching so many documentaries on King cobras is they very much have there own traits and personality’s! And when they stare you down you can see them working you out,the cogs very much are turning in there brains! Very intelligent breed!! And obviously you would know from moment to moment what kind of mood they are in! And I’ve heard in a few occasions that some King cobras can stand and look a man straight in the eyes! And they can turn carnivorous especially a male into a smaller female!! Never did I think they would or could do that!!

of the snake wanted to get him and hurt him, the snake had every chance to do so. they are quick and lethal its unwise to underestimate them. and if the snake really hated that "small" space that cage door was open long enough it could have left anytime it had wanted too.

The Black Beast must be my absolute favorite. He is so mellow. Another thing I had not noticed before the the new cage that Elvis is in is lined with a glass shield on the inside of the wire. All I have to say is nice. I was hoping that a bigger cage would have calmed him down. But he may be just being a king cobra and I am still learning thier behavior so I have learned something.

Poor Elvis. He really did not seem like himself at all. The Black Beast looks as handsome as ever too, and you can tell him I said so lol. Sir, this may be a stupid question, but I have always wondered something. I understand that if one species of snake were to bite another, it would be fatal. But If a snake of the same species were to be bitten, would it still be fatal? Or does each species carry an immunity to the venom from other snakes of the same species? And here's an ever dumber question. Snakes obiviously eat their own venom when consuming their prey, and it does not hurt them, but can that venom be excreted in its poo, or is it absorbed by the digestive process? Like I said, dumb, but I really am quite curious about this. Feel just like a donk for asking, but reptiles really intrigue me.

Not at all. He has respect for the animals he works with. King Cobras are actually relatively docile snakes. Which surprises people for some reason. His isn't aggressive. Not only that, he has a very large understanding of these snakes. How they operate. And exactly how to handle each one. Some need more caution. Others don't. He keeps his guard up regardless. He knows what he's doing. Majorly
