00:00A Summer Cobra quickly came out of the cage
00:06He will look for a place to lay his body in the sun
00:11Because he is cold-blooded, he needs the heat to melt quickly
00:17The problem is, the spot he chose
00:25is a place for dogs
00:28He is sure that he will put his life in danger
00:36In the town of Candihay, Bukol, people often encounter cobras
00:43This is inside the cage
00:47You can see the pattern, yellow and black
00:51Where did this come from?
00:52It came from the compost pit
00:56It was brought from the compost pit
01:00When was this brought to you?
01:02This is the 4th time
01:05But the other one we released, this is the 4th
01:08When I was studying in elementary school,
01:10one of our neighbors was bitten by a king cobra
01:13So I was curious, what is the venom of a king cobra?
01:16Before I started catching binimus, I did some research
01:18So I am used to how to catch binimus
01:22We're going to take it out from the shell
01:25And then, let's examine this cobra
01:35We saw this summer cobra, how fierce it is
01:39As soon as we took it out of its box,
01:41it attempted to attack us
01:47To know if this cobra is fit for release,
01:51we need to check it
01:57We can see the typical characteristics of a summer cobra
02:01The yellow and black coloration on its body
02:04Earlier, we saw how feisty it is
02:07So they're out to defend itself
02:09You also saw the fangs, that's what's deadly to it
02:13So when that bites, it hangs to the flesh
02:16And that's where it injects its venom
02:18Beautiful snake
02:20It doesn't have a lot of scars on its snout
02:23Unlike the other snakes we see
02:25In their attempt to escape, it doesn't have scars
02:33This is a show of aggression
02:35It shows this to scare the people around it
02:39And show dominance also
02:43The conditions of the snakes are good
02:45So this one is really fit for release
02:48And we can immediately release this back into the wild
02:51Endemic or only found in the Philippines
02:55They have populations in Bohol, Leyte, Samar, and Mindanao
03:02Together with DNR Bohol, we returned the summer cobra
03:06to its natural habitat
03:09There seems to be food here
03:11Because this is a body of water
03:13There are fishes and crabs that it can eat
03:17But it can't cross its path to the people here
03:20Because of that, we have a problem
03:43Thank you so much for watching Born To Be Wild
