The king cobra is not a member of the cobra genus, but belongs to the independent king cobra genus. Compared with other cobras, the king cobra is more ferocious in nature, extremely agile in response, flexible in neck rotation and large in detoxification. It is one of the most dangerous snakes in the world. Does the king cobra have natural enemies? Let's take a look at it together.

Cymbal

Of course, you can't say that if you are a natural enemy, but if you really fight alone, you are not sure that you will win for the king snake in the wild. The adult king cobra is huge, some up to 6 meters long, and the king snake is also very afraid of the king snake. Usually the king snake will attack a snake 3-4 meters long, but when it comes to a big king snake, there is nothing you can do about it, because the king snake will kill you with a single blow.

If the king snake meets a herd in the open area (because the king snake is often several together, and often, the mother is with a group of small birds), it will be very difficult for the king snake to escape safely, and there is a good chance that it will become a snack in the mouth of the king snake.

Snake vulture

The snake vulture is born to be the nemesis of snakes. It lives in the wild plains of Africa. Its legs are as long as storks, but its claws are as sharp as eagles. Because its legs are as long as 1.2 meters, most snakes are in its diet. Of course, snake vultures will not attack big snakes like King Snake, but if they really want to fight, even King Cobra has a poor chance of winning. Snake vultures are monogamous, and if snakes accidentally enter their nests during the breeding season, no matter what kind of snakes, they will be fatally hit.

There was a record that a cobra climbed under the tree where the snake vulture built its nest. as a result, the snake vulture launched a "perimeter attack", and the 4-meter-long cobra became the midday meal of the snake vulture.

The attack mode of the snake vulture is irresistible to the snake. it often uses its claws to trample on the snake's body, and its sharp toes will easily pierce the snake's body, and usually a few feet will make the snake unable to crawl, and when attacking, the snake will spread two wings with a large wingspan, and the white and black feathers flutter, which will distract the snake. If the king snake can only bite the vulture's feathers, it is dead. The snake vulture flapping its wings will dazzle the snake and confuse the direction of attack, because the snake's eyes are not very good, and the snake's long legs are covered with hard scales, so it is difficult for the snake to bite the snake vulture.

Eagle

The eagle will also defeat the king cobra. The eagle has many ways to attack the snake, grabbing the snake directly into the sky and throwing it to the ground, so that the snake will fall into a zombie. Of course, for big snakes like the king cobra, it is usually the top birds of prey like the cobra that attack.

The eagle is a very clever hunter, it often launches air attacks, it attacks the prey's head, accompanied by the flapping of wings, when the eagle swoops up to attack, the speed is very incredible, the air dive is powerful, the strength is so great that the king snake has no time to prepare, the king snake in the huge impact force is disorganized, the eagle's claws, a blow through the king snake's body. At the same time, when the eagle catches its prey, the eagle flaps its wings to avoid the return bite of its prey, which will make the snake break its waist, and the king snake is no exception.

Human beings

This editor will not explain to you, and there is no need to explain. Human beings are the natural enemies of all animals, which should be the consensus of the animal kingdom. imagine a parade of animal armies shouting slogans such as "We want to protest".
