Forest Cobra
Forest Cobra, AKA black cobra AKA the black AKA white-lipped cobra – how many more names can a deadly snake possibly have?! ~Sorry, rant over.~ Native to Africa, it’s actually the largest true cobra species with a length (including the tail) of up to 10 feet. Yeah, this is so not okay. How useless does health insurance coverage sound when it comes to snake bites? Think we should all do something about that.
Jararaca
Jararaca is low-and-behold the best-known venomous snake in all of the wealthy and heavily populated areas of southeastern Brazil. How lovely. In fact, between 1902 and 1945, this critter was responsible for about 52% (3,446 cases) of snakebites, with a total 0.7% mortality rate (25 deaths). Need we mention their deadly venom?
