17' King Cobra

[PARA45]

When I was a kid I used to go to the Miami Serpentarium; they had the biggest King Cobra in captivity. Mr. Hasst would kiss this monster on the forehead and he would milk it, several CCs of venom, it was impressive. Love the place!!

Ok, yeah when I was stationed in Florida about 17 years ago, there was a shovel outside the office for snakes. With the caveat that if you killed an indigo you were going to jail.

Capture of a 17' King Cobra? Looks more like 14'?
Enough venom to kill everyone holding it.
Fast forward to 27:00

@Brent in Az
The only way to handle that is with a 12 gauge from twenty yards.

I don't like snakes

The short story is better!

@Russ16
Even short is to big.
