King Cobra
Hi Model Flight! Regarding the statement you added to King cobra, if you have a reference, then please add it to the article. If you don't, then your claims can't be verified and no one has to believe you. But, even with that reference, I'm not sure I can accept this statement. Compared to other cobras, the king cobra has a rather narrow hood, and even if somebody did publish a paper about a specimen caught in Changi in 1965 that claims the hood was one foot wide, there's no reason to believe that. After all, who did the measuring and how can it have been measured accurately? No king cobra will allow anyone to put a tape measure to its hood, which will disappear when the animal is restrained by the neck. Also, it's unlikely that any sophisticated stereoscopic photographic technique was used to make an accurate measurement. Always remember: giant snake stories are a dime a dozen. --Jwinius 12:06, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
