Secrets of the King Cobra is an unprecedented journey into the natural history of the wild King Cobra, following them into their world-revealing what they do, where they go, and who they interact with-when we are not around. And surprisingly, the people of India are very much a part of the story. Early evidence suggests that kings might be more intertwined with humans than previously thought, making this project more important than ever. It is a close and personal look into the secret life of the King-and the best chance we have of ensuring the survival of this legendary snake.

He is the king of serpents: Unblinking, hypnotic, deadly, and hungry for his own kind. The king cobra, the largest venomous snake in the world, is powerful enough to kill a full-grown elephant… and yet we know almost nothing about it. Fortunately, that’s about to change. Tune in to find out how..
