A three metre king cobra has been caught in Trang yesterday, the sixth king cobra caught in Trang in two months. It’s much smaller than the 5 metre monsters caught in Krabi in recent weeks.

Rescue workers in Sikao, Trang were notified of the king cobra that was found near the entrance of Pak Meang Beach in Had Jao Mai National Park in Trang. The king cobra has been injured after being hit by a car.

This king cobra is three metres long and weighs about 30 kilograms. The area where the king cobra was found is near a lagoon. It is believed that the king cobra was trying to find some water as the weather is getting hot and dry.

A 20 kilogram, 6 metre king cobra has been caught in Trang by rescue workers last month.
