The king cobra is the world's longest venomous snake. It averages 3.7 m (12 ft) in length but is known to grow to 5.5 m (18 ft). It is olive or brown in color, with bronze eyes; some individuals are banded. It is found in the Philippines, Malaysia, southern China, Myanmar (formerly known as Burma), India, Thailand, and the Malay Peninsula. It eats primarily other snakes. The other cobra of Asia is known variously as the common, Asian, Indian, or spectacled cobra (due to the eyeglass-shaped pattern on its skin). It seldom reaches a length of more than 1.8 m (6 ft). The hood of the common cobra is, proportionately, much larger than that of the king cobra and is usually yellow to brown, with a black-and-white spectacle pattern on top and two black and white spots on the lower surface. This snake causes many deaths each year in India, where it is regarded with religious awe and is seldom killed. The common cobra is frequently used by snake charmers. It ranges from the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea to China and Malaysia.
