Recently, there have been frequent egg loss incidents in a chicken farm in Menglian County, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province. The "egg thief" was actually a long and thick snake. After the snake was discovered, the person in charge of the chicken farm immediately called the police for help.
After receiving the police, the police from the Forest Police Brigade of the Menglian County Public Security Bureau rushed to arrest him.
The forest police brigade captain confirmed that this is a 6.65 kg, 3.45 m long and highly poisonous king cobra, and it is a national second-class protected animal.
Subsequently, the forest police brigade handed it over to the county forestry and grass department for observation and rescue. If it is confirmed that it is healthy and capable of survival in the wild, it will be released to nature at an optional time.
It is understood that King Cobra is not a member of the genus Cobra, but belongs to an independent genus of King Cobra. It has a more ferocious temperament and a large amount of detoxification than cobras. It is one of the most dangerous snakes in the world.
