That na cobra. Very venomous creature.

It’s actually the West African spitting cobra..the yellow markings is a dead giveaway..that is one big cobra! Lucky inhabitants..that species of cobra is very widely spread around Nigeria..and neighboring countries.

That snake might be poisonous but not dangerous if left alone unthreatened , it was in the kitchen looking for food which measn the woman has rats in her kitchen. Snakes always follow the scent of preys like rats and lizards

Each time I see a snake post I open it just to see the funny dance picture people post

That looks like a king cobra. What the hell is it doing in Nigeria

Campusity:
That's a forest cobra (Naja melanoleuca) going by the markings on its neck just like the same specie below.

It is one of the largest cobra species and is found in West Africa in thick forest such as enugu. When the snake really means to bite, death can occur rapidly, within 30 to 120 minutes!

Woman! You are damn lucky!!

How do we know when it means to bite

Thats a king cobra, over here in India, we give them water

Not a king cobra but don't be shocked if we have those here too.... don't ever believe wat the White man tells u about the West Africans jungle ( Nigeria to the precised)... National Geographic don't come here... they just assume.... Nigeria is so diversified from people to animals and natural resources!

Its a king cobra. rarely attacks humans. Hunts and feeds on other snakes.

A cobra is not a poisonous snake

That's a KING COBRA LEGIT
