Beautiful video I found of a wild king cobra showing off his shimmering belly.
The man who captured this video keeps rescued captive king cobras, he says that glassy iridescence on this 9-10 foot male cobra’s body tells us he has shed his skin recently because within 24 hours after shed that iridescence will disappear until the next shed cycle. Apparently it is rare to catch one of them so fresh out of shed so not many people get to witness this iridescence.
The breathy growling heard in the video is coming from the king cobra, it was a warning but when he realized he wasn’t going to be left alone that way he made an escape instead.
