This is really interesting and terrible .A new species of giant spitting cobra, measuring nearly nine feet and possessing enough venom to kill at least 15 people, has been discovered in Kenya.Wild life Direct said the cobras were the world's largest and had been identified as unique. The species has been named Naja Ashei after James Ashe, who founded the Bio Ken snake farm on Kenya's tropical coast where the gigantic serpents are found.
"A new species of giant spitting cobra is exciting and reinforces the obvious , that there have to be many other un reported species but hundreds are being lost as their habitats disappear under the continued mis management of our planet -The earth," said the group's chairman.
Ashe, now deceased, was the first to catch a larger than normal spitting cobra in the 1960s and suggest it belonged to a different species of snakes.Really terrible !!!
