I only hope that people wanting a hot look at these pictures before they make their final descision. It's a huge responsibility.

I don't think so. He takes his animals very seriously. What happened was a miscalculated move on his part.
And I agree with you wholeheartedly.

I would love to own a Monocled Cobra, but I have a baby girl and this is the exact reason why I will probably never own one. No matter how experienced you are, accidents happen. I think it's unfair to own a hot and then tell my daughter that I never want her owning one. I'm not really afraid of being put in the hospital for my screw up, but I don't want her to.

That's crazy! Thanks for sharing, glad to see he's going to make a full recovery.

Holy crap my finger is sore now....

That's incredible! I've never seen anything like that. That's pretty gross. Very interesting to see, but I don't wish that on anyone. Hope your buddy is feeling better

we own monocles and I just had a daughter shes two weeks old now and if she grew up and knew how to properly handle cobras I would be one of the proudest parents out there. Accidents can happen but they dont always happen. Keeping venomous really is no different then keeping nonvenomous as long as you have common sense and a healthy respect of the animal. When you take shortcuts or push your limits so to speak the animal will then put you back in line.

I just wanted to update some photos and a few skin graphs later.
