RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Raleigh police are warning residents of a neighborhood in the northwest part of the city that there’s a highly venomous snake on the loose there.
Police sent a release around 1:30 a.m. Tuesday warning that a zebra cobra, which is known to spit venom, was spotted on the porch of a home in the 7000-block of Sandringham Drive around 5:10 p.m. Monday.
An animal control officer responded to the home after receiving a report regarding the snake, but the cobra was not found.
According to authorities, the zebra cobra belongs to a resident of the neighborhood.
Police said Tuesday morning that the cobra remains on the loose and could spit and bite if cornered.

I live in Raleigh, but not close to that neighborhood. You would think that the Police could have released the warning much earlier than 1:30 a.m. on Tuesday.

Just find another resident that owns a weasel or ferret and let it loose to hunt the cobra!

It won’t be around for the winter. If it happened in FLA, it would be, So? Just another added species.
