SOMeTOM Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 My little hairy miss, just pulled out from under the bed this beast, does anyone knows it's name or if it is venomous at all (as it might have bitten my doggie during the struggle)?, thanks.

Sorry mate, cant agree, if something that dangerous entered my home or came within distance of a family member it would be killed on sight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATF Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 90% sure it is a banded kukri snake. Non venomous eats bugs, frogs etc. Other possibility a wolf snake again non venomous. No way is it a cobra. Another big kill for the Great White Hunter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

55Jay Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 The photo color seems a bit off, but the close up of the head and scales looks like a cobra to me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATF Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 The photo color seems a bit off, but the close up of the head and scales looks like a cobra to me as well. Cobras are usually brown to black and their tongue is usually pink. If the OP opens the mouth then we can see the huge fangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobras are usually brown to black and their tongue is usually pink. If the OP opens the mouth then we can see the huge fangs. Sorry but i disposed off it already, also i don't think i want to do that either, i will keep my doubt and snake policy, if it comes into the house/land, it's bye bye snake.....i am aware that many are not dangerous, but the problem is that i am not so good in recognizing them, i usually have lots of bright green ones climbing banana trees, lately i got a few of this too. I don't know if it makes much difference or not, but when it came head to head with the Little White Hunter ( my dog is the size of about 3 cats, maybe 2 and a half, ah ah), i clearly heard a loud hissing sound, so strong i thought it was a cat down there, then, little missus bite the beast and started banging it on the floor, left and right to presumably avoiding being bitten back, then i grab a machete and end up the struggle. Doggie it's still okay, so, either didn't get bitten or it was not venomous. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wooloomooloo Posted June 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 14, 2014 Keep an eye on the dog. If its paws are in the air in the morning and it's stiff then it's probably dead. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetlejuice Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) Without a doubt that`s a cobra, deadly venomous. The hood is clearly visible on the one killed by the OP. I normally don`t agree with killing snakes, but in this case the OP was well justified. Edited June 14, 2014 by Beetlejuice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmsally Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 It looks quite like a rat snake, but the scales look very like a cobra's. Difficult to tell from pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckamuck Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 By the pattern of scales on the head I am certain it is a king cobra. Enough venom to down an elephant. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:King_Cobra_head.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamalaRider Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) According to the pictures for black cobra in Google, I would say its absolutely that. Too bad you had to kill it but I understand that you did. https://www.google.co.th/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&docid=Fe2C95JkeRR9aM&tbnid=A847kAC-vzyG3M:&ved=0CAUQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.arkive.org%2Findian-cobra%2Fnaja-naja%2Fimage-G129142.html&ei=EQmdU4fZN5WVuASG0IKwDA&bvm=bv.68911936,d.c2E&psig=AFQjCNEkpNroliy2220hP2DwJjDJzUiynA&ust=1402886801413982 Edited June 15, 2014 by KamalaRider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way is it a cobra. Another big kill for the Great White Hunter. The snake in his pictures doesn't have bands at all. In my opnion and Google's massive archive of snake pictures of kukri snakes proves you wrong, sorry. It absolutely looks like a black cobra, highly venumoues.

neverdie Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 All show and not much go, the Cobra's. Get yourselves into the seat of an old cruiser bouncing along a dirt outback road in Australia and an Eastern Brown Snake pops it head out from under the passenger seat, angry as all shit and happy to chase you out of the car irregardless of the speed your travlin at. Cobras are pussy snakes ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
