YOGYAKARTA King cobra is a species of poisonous snake that can reach 5.6 meters long. This snake does have a very dangerous venom, even capable of killing an elephant. Although quite dangerous, when you meet this snake, you should not be killed. There are several reasons why you should not kill the cobra king when you encounter this dangerous snake.
Reporting from Cebudailynews, cobras are considered an important species of the environment. Here are some reasons for the ban on killing cobras.
Many studies have stated that cobra king has an important role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem. This snake helps control the population of other snakes, especially other venomous snakes.
In addition, this snake species also helps control quite disturbing rat pests, especially in agricultural land areas. If the population of cobra kings gets less, rats and other toxic snakes will increase.
Interestingly, it can be a poison owned by a cobra king that has the potential to become a cure. Ohanin, the designation for cobra venom, can be developed into a pain reliever whose effect is 20 times stronger than morphine and without any side effects. This poison can potentially be used as part of cancer and even diabetes treatment.
The number of cobra king snakes is currently decreasing and threatened with extinction. Based on research in India, cobras in the country have decreased by about 30 percent over the past 75 years. This was triggered by habitat destruction and massive hunting by humans.
Cobra king snakes are forced to find new hiding places including in villages around the forest due to deforestation and ecology disturbed by hunters. For that reason it is natural that cobra kings are forced to seek refuge in human settlements.
In addition to some of the reasons above, killing a cobra king is something that is risky, especially if an inexperienced person is done. When this snake enters the house or yard, it is advisable to summon a snake controller or a professional who is able to handle the presence of this snake.
It should also be noted that cobra kings are snakes that tend to avoid humans. These snakes can appear in the yard when they are looking for prey or when they are threatened.
