I’d love to see him try that with a rattlesnake or another fast strike snake.

I have a friend who not only has several types of Cobras and Rattlers, he also has Gaboons.

He says they’re slower to strike than any of his other hots.

And despite the hysterical rants of others, King Cobras are infamously non-aggressive.

In India, the rice paddy workers welcome them as they keep the rodents at bay.

When they spot one ranging too close to their homes, they have officials come and relocate it.

They go out of their way not to harm them.

Some people need to stop getting their “information” from sensationalistic TV shows.
