Answers
The Indian cobra, also known as the spectacled cobra, Asian cobra, or binocellate cobra, is a species of the genus Naja found, in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bhutan, and a member of the "big four" species that inflict the most snakebites on humans in India.
Scientific name: Naja naja
Higher classification: Cobras
Rank: Species
Family: Elapidae
Class: Reptilia
Kingdom: Animalia
Indian cobras are found in many habitats but generally prefer open forest edges, fields, and the areas around villages, often with water in the vicinity. They are found anywhere their prey, rats, are abundant.
The ventral scales or the underside colouration of this species can be grey, yellow, tan, brown, reddish or black. Dorsal scales of the Indian cobra may have a hood mark or colour patterns. The most common visible pattern is a posteriorly convex light band at the level of the 20th to 25th ventrals.
In its characteristic threat posture, the Indian cobra raises the front one-third of its body and spreads out its long, flexible neck ribs and loose skin to form a disklike hood, on the back of which there are markings resembling eyes. Indian cobras pay more attention to their eggs than is usual in snakes.
