  • Cobras are deadly venomous elapid snakes. Some cobras evolved a very special way of defense - they spit their venom from their fangs. Spitting cobras live in Africa and Asia. The most skilled spitting cobra species can be found in Africa. This video shows footage of 4 spitting cobra species in the wild. The first one is the Black-necked spitting cobra (Naja nigricollis). It is a black cobra, one of the longest spitting cobras. Red spitting cobra (Naja pallida) is smaller and has bright red color. It is a powerful spitter. Mozambique spitting cobra (Naja mossambica) is famous for its spitting abilities. The biggest spitting cobra in the world is the Ashe's spitting cobra (Naja ashei). Which one of these 4 deadly venomous snakes is your favorite?

    I have become regular viewer of this channels deliveries. Boomslang film , Arizona rattlesnakes and this spitting cobra film was so satisfying. No one can resist to capture footage in middle and somewhere of the photography . Photography is mind blowing. I have captured few amazing clicks out of these videos. Thanks. Keep exploring . Above all, the concept of silent filming just the sound of nature, I loved the most .

      The ashe's spitting cobra isn't just one of the biggest pecies of spitting cobras but also highly aggressive whwn provoked, it can spit without running out of venom

    • @Steevee14
      @Steevee14 Před rokem

      ​​@@BlackieFoxxless Do you know the Latin/scientific name of the ashe's" cobra? (I am unfamiliar with that common name - never heard of the "ashe's" cobra). I think that a spitting cobra's venom would become depleted after a lot of spitting, until its venom glands could manufacture more, which I would think would take some hours. Finally, don't you think that it would be more accurate to say that snakes become highly defensive when provoked, as opposed to highly "aggressive"?

    These are amazing snakes. The shininess of the snakes surprises me. They look like if one were to shine a light on them at night that they would almost glow. I think the mambas appear that way as well. The species here seems to have a brightness to them that rattlesnakes, pythons, or even the vipers that were shown here on your channel do not. Is it true that "spitting" the venom is really kind of a misnomer? I picture the mechanism that allows the snake to shoot the venom out is similar to a syringe shooting the liquid inside out. Is this a more apt analogy? I was also surprised by how small the fangs appear to be. They look like they could be smaller than the average domesticated cats teeth. Is this true? I do not have a good reference in the video to judge the fang length. You got some great shots of the fangs of the Mozambique Spitting Cobra. You say here that the accuracy of the "spit" is so many meters. Is that the full range of the venom "spit?" Lastly, depsite the description of these snakes as being big, they appear quite small in body mass. I get the feeling from seeing them crawl through the grass, that a rattlesnake of similar length would be "thicker" than these snakes? Is this true? Again, I have no real reference point in your videos to judge largely due to my unfamiliarity with the terrain and other background objects. I think all of these snake species are some of the most beautiful and eye appealing snakes in the world. The first two species featured here could wind beauty pagents. They would be pleasant to have around just for their colouring and aesthetic appeal. It really is hard not to look at them. Thank you again for this video. I know that it could not have been a safe adventure largely because of your proximity to these snakes. They thought you were threats when they were hooded and "spitting." Great video. I loved all of it. I could have easily wathced another hour of these snakes just crawling around and basking in the sun. Thank you for this fascinating video.

      @LivingZoology  Před 2 lety +3

      Thank you very much for another nice comment and your support! You are right that many elapids have shiny colorful smooth scales, which is not typical for rattlesnakes or pythons (either keeled or not so shiny smooth scales). The analogy with the syringe is correct, the venom is pushed from the venom gland into the fang and from there it flies out. Elapids have quite small fangs and they are not well visible even if the snake opens its mouth. So yes, fangs of cobras are smaller than cat's teeth. Most spitting cobras are precise when they spit to up to 2 meters distance. In this video we showed two big cobras (first and the last) and two small ones (second and third). In general cobras are not so heavily bodied as many vipers of the same size would be. Some spitters spit if there is any movement around them, so you actually don't need to do much to make them show this behavior! As you could see on the third species, often they spit without making the hood. Once again, thank you very much!

      @jazzbariman Před 2 lety

      Thanks for your reply. I always learn so much from your videos and your replies. More than I have with any other nature channel or book. I do have a few more questions for you. If the fangs are shorter that other snakes, isn't protection from a bite rather a simple clothing choice? Would a leather anything protect from a cobra bite? I know that would be hotter to wear, but it almost seems like a think piece of clothing might do the trick. How strong are snake teeth? Fangs? Are they easily pulled from a snake's mouth if the bitee struggles a bit? If a cobra loses a fang, do they grow back? From you videos, these species of snakes even seem more shiny than the other non-spitting cobras we have seen here. That could be my fascination with these snake, though. I think the amount of money I am paying to be a member of your channel is the best money I have spent in a while. It is worth every penny in entertainment value. The replies to my comments and the education I receive are pure icing on the cake. To people reading this comment, JOIN! The extras you get from paying are well worth the money. I guarantee that. The extras are better than NetFlix. An aside to that, you might want to think about a payment option for schools as a whole to join for the extras. Not sure how that would work exactly, but you might get some valuable exposure that way. I still think you need an Animal Planet Show. Some of these videos are too short for my tastes. The cinematography and information is some of the best I have seen. I am a HUGE fan. Thank you for these videos.

      @@jazzbariman We are very happy that you learn new information not only by watching our videos, but also from our answers in the comments! You are right that a thick leather might be strong enough to protect you from a snakebite. The problem is that nobody will wear that every day in the tropical climate :D You never know when a snake comes near you and bites you, you really would need to wear this all the time! Snake have quite fragile teeth which often break off. New fangs are always growing and ready to replace the old one. Maybe you remember our older video about Boomslang, in one shot the snake yawns and two fangs are visible on one side: czcams.com/video/cP5kqH_N0u8/video.html We will be very happy if more members join our channel!

      One new study suggests that spitting probably evolved when first hominins appeared in Africa and Asia. It seems that our human evolution might have triggered spitting behavior in cobras. Why other snakes did not need to have this defense? Maybe because of their lifestyle. Cobras are often diurnal and move in open areas a lot, thus they meet people. Vipers are secretive, most colubrids extremely fast, etc., so clashes with humans are not so common.

    • @LivingZoology
      @LivingZoology  Před 2 lety

      Usually they spit accurately up to 3 meters, it depends on the size of the snake of course. Small cobras don’t spit to such a long distance.

    The one cobra that living zoology miss is the snouted cobra. The snouted cobra is most underrated cobra’s of Africa. That my opinion

      Thank you very much! It is great that you love all the aspects of our video. Many people see snakes are deadly dangerous, but we want to show instead how beautiful and peaceful they are. Spitting cobra only says 'Don't come closer'.

    Black Necked Spitting Cobra's hole body is Black. Why it called black-necked instead of Black Spitting Cobra?

    • @LivingZoology
      @LivingZoology  Před 6 měsíci

      Some Black-necked spitting cobras lack the red or whitish band on their neck. Black spitting cobra is another species, always black.

      It is weird and it happens specifically with the Mozambique spitting cobras. More research needs to be done on this topic.

  • @MrAtlantafalcon
    @MrAtlantafalcon Před 2 lety

    Not to villainize any particular species of snake, but we’ve probably all asked ourselves which deadly species we would least like to stumble upon unexpectedly. There are valid reasons for many, but there’s something uniquely threatening about a 6 foot snake that can spit venom in your eyes from 10 feet away. It’s definitely a top contender.
    What unexpected snake encounter would you fear the most?

    • @LivingZoology
      @LivingZoology  Před 2 lety +2

      Probably the worst thing would be to step on a perfectly camouflaged Puff adder or a Russell's viper. Russell's viper is a very unpredictable snake. But so far we have only nice encounters with snakes :)

      the venom in contact with the eyes doesn't cause blindness or death but excruciating pain, until is washed away with water or milk. it can cause some serious inflammation but nothing with long lasting effects, just mucus for the next day coming out of the eyes ... that being said, the video is great. congratulations and keep it up. i love the way are edited and filmed.
