Forest Cobra

Forest Cobra, AKA black cobra AKA black AKA white-lipped cobra – how many more names could a dangerous snake possibly have?! – Sorry, rant over.~ The largest true cobra species with a length (including the tail) of up to 10 feet is currently native to Africa.

Jararaca

In all the affluent and densely populated areas of southeastern Brazil, Jararaca is the low-and-behold, best-known venomous snake. How beautiful. In fact, this critter was responsible for about 52 percent (3,446 cases) of snakebites between 1902 and 1945, with a total mortality rate of 0.7 percent (25 deaths). Need we mention the deadly venom of them?
