The King Cobra can live for 20 years and reach a length of up to 18 feet. Drop for drop, king cobra venom is actually less potent than that of many other venomous snakes. However, due to the snake’s large size, they are able to inject a huge dose of venom. A single bite from this snake can inject enough venom to kill and Asian elephant. They can see moving objects from 100 yards away. That’s the length of a football field! Their keen eyesight allows them to watch out for both prey and predators.
