It is a depiction of the Rod of Asclepius, not to be confused with the caduceus. In Greek mythology Asclepius was the son of Apollo and a practitioner of medicine. Hippocrates (the father of medicine) was a worshiper of Asclepius.

Its a solitary old male and very agressive. When standing its stomach height on a 180 cm human.

Banakon snake is a king cobra or a black mamba?
Banakon resembles a Black Mamba more than a King Cobra in terms of physical look. In contrast to King Cobra, who has a thicker body than Banakon, Banakon has a thinner and longer body. Moreover, the Banakon moves faster than a King Cobra. I hope this species will be the subject of additional research. There are other rumors that Banakon is not a native of the Philippines but originated from the other country. Accidentally brought here by the grass straw plant, which was introduced for the purpose of feeding livestocks.
Do you hurt snakes when you hold them?
No, you don't hurt snakes when you hold them. If they are in pain though, or are annoyed, the snake will crawl and squirm away from your hold. Also, wait 24 hours or more to hold a snake after a he eats. Snakes have slow digestion so trying to pick him up will cause him to either get upset or vomit his food.
Most of all, be gentle with a snake. They can sense fear and a tense person.

Water snakes, sea snakes, sea kraits, water moccasins. Most snakes can swim but many choose to avoid water.
Snakes typically shut down September-October but that depends on where you live.
Snakes can be found at any time of the year. They sleep in the winter but don't hibernate. If a snake did not eat enough before its long sleep it will wake up, no matter the temperature, and try to find food or whatever resource it requires. Although a snake slithering across the snow is very uncommon, it is possible and does happen.
To answer the question, snakes are typically asleep by November but their are exceptions and reasons that could prove otherwise depending on location and the individual snakes preparedness for the rough times.
How do you keep snakes out of your garage?
Approach slowly, talk softly, place a chair nearby and sit quietly as you continue talking. Each time, bring soft (canned) kitten food with you, nicely broken up in a low bowl. Put the bowl next to your chair, stand up, and walk away; leave the kitten to eat in peace.
Twice a day, take him food and water. Each time, put both next to the chair. But, over many days, don't stand up and leave as soon as you did the last time. Food always wins, eventually. Trust is always greatest with the one person who feeds an animal.
Note: If the kitten is over 6 weeks old and was never touched by humans, he may already be feral (a bit wild). Don't give up hope--it is possible to gain the trust of a feral kitten and eventually make a pet. But trust must not be broken, or you'd be back at square one. So always feed near the same time, same spot, same behavior (yours), and same soft approach with your words, tone of voice, and your actions.
Another Answer
If you wish an easier and faster way then just go to your local animal shelter or pet shop and purchase an inexspensive live trap for small animals, these traps resemble wire cages and they allow you to place food inside at one end and the other end is open,when the animal enters and goes to the end to get the food the door closes and humanely traps the animal alive inside...place the trap close to where you hear the kitten and just leave it, check the trap everyday, hunger will eventually force the animal to enter the cage.
They rise up on their bodies a bit; usually about half of their length is in the air vertically. They spread out two flaps of skin on the sides of their necks and open their mouths wide, as a warning of their toxic, powerful venom.
