Black spitting cobra seen near Serangoon Gardens remains elusive after NParks' searches

The species is drawn to areas with prey such as rats and frogs. NParks advises people who encounter a snake to keep a safe distance, stay calm and give it space to retreat.

An unofficial notice featuring a digitally added image of a cobra, put up in the Mei Hwan Drive neighbourhood and circulated on social media. (Photo: Social media)
