COBRA (2871)

Cobra is the common name for members of the family of venomous snakes, Elapidae, known for their intimidating looks and deadly bite. Cobras are recognized by the hoods that they flare when angry or disturbed. These reptiles are found throughout the Philippines, southern Asia, and Africa. The king cobra is the world's longest venomous snake (up to 24 feet in length.) Contrary to folklore, cobras will seldom attack unprovoked. Cobras are famous for their use by snake charmers because they respond well to visual cues, and are of spectacular appearance. Our Cobra Hand Puppet is 15 inches tall and a real charmer!
