Most venomous snakes use their sharp fangs to attack enemies. Some cobras, however, have a different way of attacking—they spit! Spitting cobras spray venom at their enemies by forcing it through small holes in their fangs. Some can project their venom up to 10 feet away. Most of these spitting cobras have excellent aim, going right for the eyes every time. Readers will enjoy the close-up views of spitting cobras while reading about these deadly reptiles.
