The fangs of King Cobras are very short and only go from 1.5mm to 2.0mm in size. the fangs are hollow as venom is channeled through the fangs when biting prey, and sinks into its preys body through the bite. The fangs of the King Cobra may be short but they strike downwards quickly at their prey killing them with poison before the prey has the chance to move. The fangs of males are often larger than females. King Cobra fangs are likely to be adapted to short fangs so that the venom goes into the prey faster than waiting for the venom to pass through long fangs, meaning that the actual main weapon is the poison and is partially the bite that the fang does to slightly damage. There might have been environmental pressure from a King Cobra which tried to kill prey of an venomous snake, but lost as it could not injure the snake in the short time which they are attacked by poison from the venomous snake.
