  • Jayakumar SS is one of the dedicated wildlife conservationists who work to solve the human-snake conflict in their communities while risking their own lives to protect some of India’s most dangerous snake species. This video shows a rescue of a big King cobra from a car. Jayakumar needed to take the snake out of the vehicle and guide it into the snake bag. King cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) is the longest venomous snake in the world, it can grow up to 5.5 meters! King cobras with length of 4 meters are often seen around Agumbe in Western Ghats of India. Venom of King cobra can kill an adult elephant with a single bite (it has huge venom yield).

    • @LivingZoology
      @LivingZoology  Před 2 lety +5

      Thank you! King cobras are very sensitive to any movement, that's why it is better if nobody moves. The snake can get scared by a fast movement and move unpredictably. True cobras, mambas and many diurnal elapids react to movement around a lot and it is better to do move slowly.

      @LivingZoology  Před 8 měsíci

      Snakes should not be released too far away from the place where they were caught. Ideal is the tradeoff between releasing too close to people and too far from the home range. There are studies showing that releasing snakes too far often leads to their death as they don’t know where to find food, water or shelter.

      Don't move!!! King cobras react to movement a lot, that's why. But when it was about to slither onto our legs, we had to move :D

      @@mariarogers3104 Every animal has its role in the ecosystem, you cannot say that some organisms are useless. For example, King cobras hunt other snakes. They keep populations of rat snakes, Spectacled cobras or Russell's vipers in control.

      @@mariarogers3104 You can co-exist with all kind of snakes, it is worth a try. A bit of education, takes some time though.
      As for those mentioned indigo snakes, they are in big decline due to human interference. Although they are sort of harmless, that won't save many of them. It is not for us, at least it should not be, to select and favour nice ones while persecuting and killing bad (or dangerous) species.
