What do you know about these hooded reptiles? In this video for kids, you'll learn why cobras have hoods and a lot more. Cobras are truly remarkable snakes with distinct physical features. They have long, slender bodies covered in smooth scales in various colors, including green, brown, and black. Their hoods, which they can puff up to appear larger and scarier when they feel threatened, set them apart from other snakes. These hoods are like their own special shields, and they use them to warn potential predators to stay away.

Cobras are carnivorous, and their favorite snacks include small animals like birds, rodents (such as mice and rats), and even other snakes! Cobras have long, sharp teeth called fangs that are hollow like tiny straws. When a cobra bites its prey, the venom flows from the fangs into the prey's body. This venom contains proteins and chemicals that can quickly paralyze or even kill the prey, making it easier for the cobra to have its meal.

And of course, we have to talk about the hoods! Cobras have a fascinating ability to create unique "music" with their hoods, which is a form of communication. Their hoods are like musical instruments, and cobras can make rhythmic movements with them to send signals. When a cobra feels threatened or wants to warn other animals to stay away, it can open its hood. The display shows off the cobra's size and can make it look more intimidating.
