The silence fills the air when sheer beauty, dark and massive body slides through the leaves and stops for a second. Instantly, your heart starts beating faster and gets filled with fear and joy. A small tongue pops out sensing the air and then he disappears into the bushes. Just looking at the eyes make you want to make way for this King of snakes – The Indian King Cobra.
The Indian King Cobra is one of the most beautiful snakes in the world, which is now losing its habitat. Therefore, incase if you spot one very close to a human habitat or road (Please don’t try to handle it), wait for some time and see if the snake moves away inside forest, if not call the snake rescuers and ensure that they don’t take the snake with them and release it very far as the snake won’t survive when moved to a different territory. It should be released again within a one kilometer radius. You are one lucky person if you get to spot the King in the wild.
