Intimidating snakes await with free cobra coloring pages. These 20 detailed black and white line drawings will allow you to meet some of these dangerous creatures without fear!
There are many different kinds of snakes in the world, but cobras are perhaps the most recognizable.
Even people who don’t know much about snakes will probably recognize a cobra because of its distinctive hood.
They are found in various places in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, and they are feared wherever they appear.
This is because they have a powerful venom that is a neurotoxin, and they can be rather vicious.
They’re also beautiful creatures who are perhaps a bit mischaracterized, and this collection will show them in different styles and settings to show off how amazing they are.
There are also a few fun facts for you to learn along the way that you can share with your friends!

In the wild, cobras have very few natural enemies. Surprisingly enough, the arch nemesis of the cobra is the mongoose, a creature that doesn’t look that scary but hunts cobras.
Humans are also a threat to cobras, and some are even endangered because of this. Hopefully, conservation efforts can help prevent them from becoming extinct, and some charities allow you to donate to help preserve them.
