眼镜王蛇的一咬与一项科学发现

A brush with death from a king cobra bite led to the discovery that these iconic snakes are actually four genetically distinct species, not one.

This breakthrough highlights how overlooked species differences can threaten conservation and medical treatment. Saving king cobras now means protecting multiple unique species and the biodiverse forests they call home.
