"For first time in history of snake studies, Researcher and Environment Education Officer of Agumbe Rainforest Research Station (ARRS) P Gowri Shankar recorded a female king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) building its nest for breeding."



Am I missing something? National Geographic had footage of this at least 2 years ago. I'm pretty sure I've seen other video, and I would be very surprised if they were the first...



Maybe he's the first to record the entire process in the wild?
