at a guess I'd say it's had its fangs ripped out,they do it by getting the snake to bite down on a stick then just rake the teeth out.Pretty sick really.

fangs grow back. its common practice in asia to actually sew the mouth up. when the snake starves to death.... they fetch a new one. all for the entertainment of tourists.

Yesterdays news is todays substrate.

The fangs of venomous snakes get pulled out so they dont kill the snake charmer. In the vid the fangs have been taken out off th cobra as that is why they let the baby go to it as they know it wont be able to bite.

I understand why people in asia do it as for some its the only way of putting food on the table. Though its not neccessary to go to the extreme to what they do or some do.
Yet for some like the secound vid, risking your life for a picture isnt worth it and yet after getting bitten goes back......stupid
Thats my opinon anyway.

Yeah Austin Stevens always gets a bit close.

Guess its either the thrill that makes him do that or just plain stupidity that he recons he can control the wild snakes, wounder when he would realise he isnt as fast as he thinks in dodging bites.

Hi all,
Watched the video of people doing silly things with snakes. I do not know why someone would post a video of their child being attacked by a cobra, but I do know it is not a King Cobra, (Ophiophagus hannah), it is an Indian Cobra, (Naja naja).
All the best,
Brian.

It aint a King, its an average Naja Naja (Specticled Cobra) They don't rip out the Fangs as they grow back in the matter of days.... they have probabaly Removed its Venom Glands therefore it is a Venomoid.... But it wouldnt suprise me if they have ripped out the teeth also.... The baby would cry from the bite....

Sick and twisted in my oppinion
