Description

Aspidelaps lubricus - Coral Cobra

This is a captive that I had the privilege to work with and shoot today.

It is a smaller cobra species that is found is South Africa, Angola, and Namibia. Although they are highly venomous, they are rarely considered lethal, and the only two known fatalies caused by Aspidelaps were toddlers.

To see how I created the "desert" backdrop, check it out here: [link]
