bikwiye kumenywa

Ibintu by'ukuri

Its skull has a specialised structure, and its uniquely large rostral scale makes it very good at digging and tunnelling.1

The female may stay coiled around her eggs after laying them, guarding the clutch.1

The shield-nosed cobra can live for 20 to 28 years in captivity, but this age is normally not reached in the wild because of predation, accidents and other dangers.1
