Perhaps in the fight with the king cobra, the strong venom doesn't mean much .
The king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah scientific name) is a venomous snake that eats other poisonous snakes, even a large carpet python is not a rival. The reason they can eat many other venomous snakes is due to their immunity to venom.
Therefore, when confronting a cobra, the victim will be defeated by the cobra's muscular strength and jaw muscles, which cannot pose any danger to the king cobra. The rare images below will partly show you the fear of the king cobra.
It can easily take down an extremely venomous snake (scientific name is Bungarus fasciatus) , a snake whose venom is 15 times stronger than that of a king cobra (based on LD50 - Lethal dose medium) .
This shows that the immunity of the king cobra's venom even when confronting a poisoned opponent is worse than it is.
