Seven Reptiles That Would Rather Not Coexist with You

The king cobra, the world's longest venomous snake, commands both fear and respect. Native to forests in India and Southeast Asia, this snake is known for its intelligence and cautious nature. King cobras are solitary and highly territorial, avoiding human interaction whenever possible. Deforestation and human encroachment into their habitats have led to increased encounters, often resulting in conflict. Conservationists work to protect forest habitats and educate local communities about the importance of these snakes in controlling rodent populations. By respecting the king cobra's space, we can coexist peacefully with this majestic reptile.
