The origin of cobra's name should be after the 17th and 18th centuries in modern times, which was attached to the appearance of glasses and finally became the official name. There is no unified name before formal naming.
In the history of China, snakes have no special names. Cobra has many names (of course, different kinds of cobras), such as: mountain snake, big flat-necked snake, flat-necked snake, blowing snake, crossing mountain mark, rice shovel head, rice spoon money and so on.
Cobra habit:
Cobra often likes to live in bushes or bamboo forests in plains, hills and mountainous areas, and also often appears on hillsides, watersides at the foot of mountains, beside streams and fish ponds, in fields and near houses. This kind of snake has a wide range of food habits, including snakes, fish, frogs, birds, eggs, butterflies and scorpions. It is a diurnal snake, which mainly goes out for food during the day.
Cobra can resist high temperature, and can still move freely in the high temperature environment of 35-38℃, but it has poor tolerance to low temperature. I like to hibernate in groups in winter, and it is easy to freeze to death when the temperature is below 9℃.
