'''Cobras''' are predatory and ovivorous snakes found only in [[tropical rainforest]]s and [[tropical swamp]]s. They eat smaller animals, and sometimes people if they don't find a smaller prey in time.

Their bite causes [[toxic buildup]].{{Check Tag|How much?}} The toxic buildup from their bite is not applied when they are hunting, to prevent rotting their would-be prey and leaving them unable to eat it. 

== Analysis ==
In a tropical biome, cobras are a persistent threat to your small [[animal]]s, [[children]],{{BiotechIcon}} and possibly to unarmed adults. When fighting a single cobra, its toxic bite is unlikely to make a difference, at least with adult colonists. However, the toxins can add up when fighting a [[manhunter pack]] of cobras. It can also matter when a cobra fights smaller targets.

There's not much reason to tame a cobra, or keep a tamed cobra. Cobras cannot be trained to attack, and even if you use [[allowed area]]s to force a cobra to fight, it is one of the weakest predators in the game. In the tropics, you have access to [[elephant]]s. Elephants are one of the strongest animals in the game, can be trained to attack, can graze on grass, and are just as easy to tame. In addition, elephants will not go manhunter on a failed taming attempt. As carnivores, there is no reason to farm cobras for meat.

Unlike in real life and most animals in RimWorld, cobras have no skeletons besides their skull.

== Version history ==
* [[Version/0.7.581|0.7.581]] - Added
* [[Version/0.12.906|0.12.906]] - Can now lay eggs
* 0.18/1.0 - Now provides the new [[lizardskin]], which merged its previous leather type, cobraskin, with tortoise leather and iguana skin.
* Somewhere between [[Version/1.2.2719|1.2.2719]] and [[Version/1.3.3200|1.3.3200]] - Cobras no longer use their venom when hunting. Previously, cobras had a tendency to inadvertently destroy entire ecosystems when hungry. Predators hunt when hungry, but the cobra's bite inflicted toxic buildup which caused the prey's corpse to rot. This prevented the cobra from being able to eat the corpse, which left them hungry, so they'd go hunting again and the cycle repeated. Eventually they'd leave a string of rotting animals corpses and still end up malnourished.
