I was just wondering how long would it take for a Black Pakistan Cobra to kill a Hopper mouse after the bite? Just wondering. Thanks

I know someone who fed an adult rat to a black pak... don't ask me why. The snake was maybe 4.5ft. The cobra bit the rat 4 times and the rat just walked away. 45 seconds later, it fell over and was never eaten.

not sure if there is any major difference in venom potency, but my mozambique is on hoppers, and it takes about 10-30 seconds from the time she gets a good bite in until death.
