Common Krait

A member of India’s ‘Big Four’, the Common Krait can grow anywhere from three to five feet in length, with an extremely flat head. Furthermore, if you should encounter one during the day, the snake will hide and if found, it’ll react rather slowly. However if you encounter it at night, the Common Krait will bite at the first sign of annoyance and will grow more agitated much more quickly. Nerve damage, muscle paralysis, and brain damage will follow if a bite is left untreated.
