False Water Cobras are one of the most amazing snake species I’ve ever kept. They have so much to offer to those that care for them. They are so intelligent, curious and inquisitive, and will touch your heart in ways you never thought a snake could. My most precious companion was a False Water Cobra named Legion – he is the puppy-eyed one at the bottom of my reply. He passed away at the beginning of this year due to liver failure, but he was so special to us.
We are very spiritual about the animals we encounter; we see beauty and purpose in every creature, but there are a select few that we consider sacred for the significant role they play in our lives. Animals have helped us grow and prosper in ways that we could not have done without them. It may sound silly to some, but our entire existence revolves around the animals that surround us – from a small ant on the ground to a large hawk in the sky – and the nature that shelters them. It’s just who we are.
