Небезпечна — але не найтоксичніша | Dangerous, but not necessarily the most toxic
The king cobra is genuinely dangerous, but that does not necessarily mean its venom is the most toxic in laboratory tests. It can inject a substantial amount of neurotoxic venom that can impair breathing. Toxicity also varies by test method and geographic origin; by mouse LD₅₀, the venom of some other snakes, including the Philippine cobra, is more potent. So “one of the most dangerous” is a vague generalization: bite risk also depends on dose, bite location, and access to medical care.
