How Dangerous is a Cobra
The cobra is considered one of the world's most venomous snakes. Its venom is neurotoxic, which affects the nervous system and can lead a human to the brink of death within a few hours. A bite can cause severe pain, dizziness, difficulty breathing, and unconsciousness in the victim.
The venom of the Indian cobra, found in India, is considered particularly lethal. However, if anti-venom and medical facilities are available in time, the victim's life can be saved. According to experts, it is crucial to reach a hospital immediately in such cases.
