Apart from them being located about 35 km apart they were reportedly of different lengths. There's more than one snake in the Province. 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

What is the source of your interesting soi dogs observation? Why would you conclude that King cobras would be the reason for any decline in numbers? Link to post Share on other sites

Agusts 588 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 So many king cobras loose and running around in population ....!? Maybe they scape from all those Cobra show places, who knows if they have any proper control or standard in looking after them or counting their stocks...! Once I nearly , almost, booked a hotel in Ao Nang before I noticed a snake show establishment nearby, feeewww....., closed call...., now I check carefully and stay well away from that lot...! God must have created snakes and sharks just to torture me... !!! lol 1 Link to post Share on other sites
