The Philippine Cobra (Naja philippinensis) ranks among the world's deadliest snakes due to its extremely potent neurotoxic venom. Native to the northern Philippines, this medium-sized cobra can spit its venom up to 3 meters, causing rapid paralysis when it enters eyes or bloodstream. Its bite delivers enough toxins to kill an adult human within 30 minutes without treatment, attacking the nervous system and respiratory muscles. Unlike other cobras, it maintains a hood even while moving. Found near human settlements, its aggressive nature when threatened and lack of warning strikes make it particularly dangerous to local farmers and villagers.
