The spectacled cobra, also known as the Indian cobra (Naja naja), is a venomous snake predominantly found in the Indian subcontinent.

The venom of the spectacled cobra is a potent neurotoxin that can impair the respiratory system, leading to paralysis or even death if left untreated.

However, the Indian Cobra holds significant cultural importance, being associated with various deities in Hindu mythology and frequently depicted in traditional art and folklore. Although the species has been commonly used by snake charmers in India, this practice is now illegal due to concerns over animal welfare.
