Deadly poison, but a cobra does not appear to me to be half as quick as a rattler or a cottonmouth.

At least a rattler will play defense. A cottonmouth is an asshole and will want to f*** with you.

She’s fortunate it wasn’t a “spitting” cobra .... they can spit 5-8 feet & aim for the face/eyes.

My Black Mamba can run circles around those slow pokes.
