I keep self as far away as can with these things. I mean when was in army and in areas around these things I was more scared of these things than enemy itself
The video says that the cobra is "still" common in many areas of asia. Unfortunately, they are a protected species here in Taiwan. I'd prefer their protected species status be revoked and to have a bounty put out on them. I had a close encounter with one when I was walking on a sidewalk next to a river in Taipei. I didn't know it was there until I heard the loud hiss it makes when striking, and after I jumped away I noticed its head retracting into the dense brush between the sidewalk and the river. Fortunately I wasn't bitten, and indeed cobras strike even from out of range as a warning, but it was a very close call. That head was about a half a meter from my leg when I saw it, but I don't know how many inches I was from getting a bite. There are a lot of stray dogs in that park (Taiwan doesn't capture and kill them like in the USA, and people who get tired of their dogs just let them loose in the park), and stray dogs don't seem likely to get antivenom after a cobra bite.
Good recording POV. I liked watching him take the snakes out of the tubs and i wasn't able to see that in the other venom extraction videos i watched. Thumbs upped and thanks for sharing this video :)
Damn they're a beautiful snake. I love the King, but these are the beautiful ones. They're very flighty though, where the King seems more relaxed, for a reason, I guess, when you're the King, you can afford to be a bit relaxed, knowing you could kill everyone stone dead.
Snake venom extraction is terribly dangerous and risky. I would think that in these days of kevlar vests which stop a bullet and NASA who can put a human on the moon could design a pair of gloves that would resist the powerful strike of a snake's fangs ? Is it so difficult ?
When you've raised the snakes from hatchlings and done this multiple times a day for many decades, you don't need them. And the gloves can make it harder to accurately manouevre and even hold the snake. Experience, patience, caution and respect are all that's required. Plus antivenom on standby :)
You gotta wonder, these guys who work with the most venomous snakes on the planet for some odd reason always wears like the shortest shorts, like most of the time, if you've noticed. 0 fucks given.
I know that these cobras are kept for production of venom and for saving lives. But somehow I feel sorry for them because they're kept in those small boxes...
I almost got bitten by one that I didn't notice while walking on a bike path by the river here in Taipei. I didn't know it was there until I heard the loud hiss it makes when striking, but fortunately I was out of range. I saw the head retreating into the bush near my right leg, and I was within a foot and a half of it. How many inches I was out of striking range I don't know, but I had nightmares for a week about it and wish they'd get some mongooses (either single gendered or neutered) from India to wipe the cobras out. Instead, they are a protected species here.
why they don´t use protection gloves ? @ ITALY ( sorry my english is not good ) im afraid of snake , but i love spider´s .... im happy that we dont have snake over here in europe

Not at all, I have been keeping snakes for many years and due to snakes secretive nature and how stressed the can be in a large environment will cause real issues for that animal. I often take my snakes out of their tubs into a room and allow them to stretch out for 30 minutes, I often find them jammed between a chair and a wall as they want to feel safe. So these tubs are the best things for these animals allowing us in captivity to best attempted to recreate natural type environments as many snake species live in rat/rabbit warrens all their lives, as they eat the animals that live in these tunnels and stay in there for weeks to digest their food. I hope this allows you to understand the kindness shown to these amazing animals in the racks they are housed in. :)
Snakes feel very comfortable in confined spaces, they prefer darkness. That's why all zoos offer their snakes hiding places into which they will squeeze themselves, there they feel safe and can relax.
No you know what's sad? Being bitten by a snake without a anti venom and knowing you're going to die. These Places exist to save you're life if you ever get bitten by a snake
Live 20 years or more....you call what you are doing living for these animals? You have them in boxes to come out and have them milked then put up. Shame on you.
I see a lot of these comments on several milking-related videos, and I don't understand them. The snakes aren't being neglected in most cases, however I'm sure there's a few bad apples. Putting snakes in small boxes like the ones in this video is more beneficial to them than if they were in a larger enclosure. See, snakes are very confined creatures. If you put one of these cobras in a larger habitat, you would find it coiled up in a random corner of the cage rather than moving about its cage. This is because snakes are a defensive species, and would rather keep themselves away from any potential predators. They do this by purposefully putting themselves in a small space, and they feel safer this way. If you were to put a snake in a large container, you'd find that you're wasting that space on something that isn't even going to use 90% of it. On terms of milking them, yes, it does cause stress on the snakes, but their venom is far too valuable to science and medical research to ignore. You might think it's cruel, but not taking advantage of the fact that we have animals which venom could help treatment of cancer and other more deadly diseases is the truly cruel act. The snakes live adequate lives in captivity, and are in no real danger. Besides, it's not like they get milked every day. It's once bi-weekly at most, and considering the substantial amount of danger these people who provide venom go through on a daily basis is admirable given the cause. Not to mention the only way we've been able to prevent deaths from snake bites is purely from milking the snakes which cause them. Before anti-venom was produced, a bite from a western Black Mamba was a 100% death rate. After manufacturing anti-venom, a number of people have survived Black Mamba bites. Just because you see the arguably "bad" side of milking snakes and keeping them captive, doesn't make it entirely bad just because you see none of the good it's doing.
Pretty common in the reptile world. Understand that these are cold blooded animals made for conserving energy. If you put them in a huge cage all they will do is hide. They hide and do not leave unless they have to for food and water. Most snakes would not be bothered by this with a few exceptions like large pythons, indigo snakes, and rat snakes which do tend to be more active. They like small spaces and are quite comfortable in the dark, as long as they can thermoregulate it's not really an issue.
That was awesome and very scary at the same time. The herpatologist is a class act. Take care!!
That last cobra is like “bitch try me” 😂
i like how the cobras just sitting there like "hallo guys...I am here...dont forget about me."
XxXThe ArrowXxX Hahahahaha
I'm uncomfortable with how comfortable they are around these !
Yes that is for me to
No shit u see him put them back dropping them in like a pair of socks in drawer not even yanking hand back quick
Have to stay calm or bad things happen fast.
I keep self as far away as can with these things. I mean when was in army and in areas around these things I was more scared of these things than enemy itself

Also that lady, is again for some odd reason, very, very hot.
hamshussein Yes true.
Hey, the snake milking guy has all his fingers, he's gotta be the new guy. Lol
That handler is a boss!
This guy makes it look easy! I'd be bit the first time I attempted this and probably shit my pants
Wow his handling is really smooth.
Im so glad there are people like this out there willing to deal with deadly creatures and animals...etter them than me!
The albino one was one feisty little joker.
I know that these cobras are kept for production of venom and for saving lives. But somehow I feel sorry for them because they're kept in those small boxes...
For 20 years!
Cobras habitually recluse & hide inside small spaces
U can set aside a place in your home 2 keep them.

El veneno de una serpiente afecta a otra serpiente de distinta especie?
Majestic creatures cobras are
That dude must have balls the size of cannons to do that shiz
2:09 smoothest move ever for a guy wearing shorts
Who's the assistant 😍
Moneygetjealous I don't know, I'm gay. I was paying attention to the snake handler.
Moneygetjealous ikr lol
hahahahahhah
Your mom
Its his wife. No joke
That dude has massive balls.
You sucking?
I'm confused, should I focus on the snake or the assistant, both are equally venomous in their own way.
Me gusto mucho la albina como con naranja la cabeza, so Cool. 👍🍺
what is the price of snake venom?
What's the professional name of this job?
They are from my hometown
Would any of these cobras spit venom?
No. They are Indian monocled cobras, they are deadly venomous.
You are interested in buying viper venom?
Apakah Boleh Taring Ular Di Copot Saja Supaya Tidak Ada Bisanya Atau Tosiknya.
No, it's inhumane because that's taking away its natural defense mechanism.

Is this much protection enough for these people?
In India There Is Lot Of Cobra Snake.
what a beauty
can they regain venom once extracted in their lifetime?
They produce more constantly, and they never use up all their venom at once because they will need it.
These guys got there stuff together
Very beautiful cobra snake! Naja Naja!
Sadhana Pashine Actually it's Naja Kaouthia
Naja kaouthia.
Assistant is more venomous than Cobra... 🤐🤐🤐
why they don´t use protection gloves ? @ ITALY ( sorry my english is not good ) im afraid of snake , but i love spider´s .... im happy that we dont have snake over here in europe
Doris Moser we do have snakes. But non that could kill us. (They can if ur allergic)
European vipers like vipera aspis or vipera ammodytes could definitely kill you if you don't receive treatment.
Doris Moser I believe you do have some puff adder species (Bitis Arietans) but don't hold me to that statement😁
You doing great job , but please make batter place to kept cobra's these box is not good
ধন্যবাদ আপনাদের ও আপনাদের কাজকে।
আপনাদের জন্যই আমরা বেচে থাকার ঔষধ পাচ্ছি।
Why are they all wearing shorts!?!?
Looks like it’s being remote controlled lol 😂
This guy is the biggest gump of all time
Whatever that guy gets paid, probably isnt enough, but goddamn does he have decent talent in his assistants
Have you ever been bitten
Cobra Commander Rules.
The girl is fine, whoever she is.

UNHAND ME HOOMAN!!

Well...I suppose if he gets bit he's in the perfect place for it,lol.
Those snake containers don't seem very secure. They look like a bunch of stacked Tupperware
That’s a well oiled machine they do it so well

Beautiful danger noodle

Nothing will happen unless you have some wounds inside your mouth or you have ulcer.
how sad to live their lives in little boxes
Lauren S - maybe you would like him playing in your backyard???
Fuck that snake. Milk it and then kill it IMO
