First rule: several cobra are called cobras. An item belonging to a cobra is the cobra's.

 

[the_rebel_medic]

Giant cobras once attacked my neighborhood. After days of fierce fighting with steel shovels and powerful lawnmowers, we eventually took back our territory. Goddamn cobras.

 

[the_rebel_medic]

lol, well, I can now say they are aggresive little buggers

 

[SimonomiS]

It's a snake with a hood. Uh, Google dude.

 

[the_rebel_medic]

...you forgot the link

 

[loadqm]

Ahh, cobras!

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Pretty damn awesome helicopter which is also in battlefield 2

 

[SimonomiS]

...you forgot the link

2 out of 3 ain't bad. Plus, a link would actually be helpful. Which is why I'm confused as to why you don't want one.

I'm sure you could learn much more from this, than from what people tell you on this forum.

What exactly do you need to know? Just some general info? I know pretty much all there is about em lol

First of all they belong to the family of snakes called elapids, they have fixed front fangs that don't move like a viper (snakes like rattlesnakes) called elapids. This also includes snakes like coral snakes and mambas. There are also many snakes refered to as "cobras" but are not in the same family, like the King Cobra, has a hood like a cobra, but is different physiologically compared to true cobras. Some only get about 3 or 4 feet, but some also get upwards of 9 or 10 like the egyptian cobra or black forest cobra. THeyre usually pretty opportunistic, eating pretty much anything small enough to fit in their mouths. Hmm anything else you need to know ?

Cobras are venomous snakes of family Elapidae, of several genera. Elapidae also incluse the taipans, brown snakes, tiger snakes, fierce snakes, coral snakes, mambas, and sea snakes. Elapida cannot fold their fangs down, as Viperdae can, so the fangs are generally shorter. They generally inhabit tropical and desert regions of Asia and Africa. Cobras kill their prey, usually small rodents and birds, by injecting a neurotoxin through their hollow fangs. The neurotoxin blocks the synapse between neurons, thus stopping movement and control. The King Cobra notably eats other snakes; it feeds almost entirely on other snakes, even venomous ones (ophiophagy). The spitting cobra can also incapacitate larger would-be predators by delivering venom to their eyes. Cobras come in varying colors from black or dark brown to yellowish white. The (jet) black cobra found in North India is considered a sub-species of cobra.

The cobra's most recognizable feature is its hood, a flap of skin and muscle behind the head which it can flare, perhaps for the purpose of making it appear bigger and more threatening to predators. The cobra's predators include the mongoose and some raptors.

"Cobra" is the Portuguese common name for a snake; it came from late Latin *colobra (for classical coluber, colubra). When Portuguese navigators arrived to the coasts of Africa and South Asia in the 16th century, they named the cobras "cobra-capelo" = "hood-snake"; from this compound, the name entered Spanish, French, English, and other European languages.

The cobra is important in Hindu symbolism.
