The king cobra is capable of delivering larger quantities of venom than most other venomous snakes, injecting a 380-600 mg dose in a single bite. This quantity is enough to kill 20-40 grown men or even an adult elephant. One bite can cause the death of a healthy adult human within 15 mins, but death usually occurs between 30 and 45 minutes. The mortality rate from a bite can be over 75%, or only 33%, depending upon treatment details. It is regarded as one of the deadliest snakes in the world.
