dinga Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Came home after a couple of days away, to find (a) this recently deceased snake in the car port; (b) our two dogs in a very unhappy state. Both dogs were listless and with very swollen and weeping eyes. Happy to say both the dogs are (almost) back to normal after 2 trips to the vet - who did not administer any anti-venom but a number of other injections. We're all assuming the snake is some kind of spitter - probably cobra (was 85cm long). Any better identification? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckamuck Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) It seems to be a monocled cobra but it is missing the marks on the back of the hood, perhaps they develop those when they get older. Edited May 23, 2018 by canuckamuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
