Keep in mind that venom toxicity veries from region to region; even whithin the same species, Naja haje (Egyptian cobra) is generally considered LESS toxi than Naja naja (Indian cobra). Ld-50 for an Egyptian cobra is 1.15 mg/kg. compared to 0.45 mg/kg. for an Indian cobra. Also, the Forest cobra, I believe is the largest of najas, at least in Africa. It is not known if Cleopatra even used a snake to commit suicide but if she did, Naja haje is the likely candidate, although, I'm not too sure it would have been painless. Many cobra bites although highly nuerotoxic, are quite painfull!--Todg 17:21, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why didn't internal link work?

I don't know why the reference I embedded in my change doesn't seem to have saved properly.Prignillius (talk) 17:51, 22 November 2007 (UTC) Prignillius (talk) 06:22, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant information

Much of the info in the introductory paragraphs is repeated later in the article. I don't really know anything about the subject matter but I just wanted to point out that much of the unsigned comment added by Ce1984 (talk • contribs) 17:43, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

General Cleanup

I'm working on doing a general cleanup and wikification of this article. I added a map of the range, and am removing the list of countries in the 'range' section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dcole (talk • contribs) 22:41, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
