Notes

A glue trap ends a days-long search in north Raleigh for a venomous zebra cobra.
Following many hours of consultation and preparation by Animal Control officers, law enforcement and animal control officers trapped the venomous snake on a north Raleigh porch Wednesday night, a 48-hour incident that generated nationwide interest.
The cobra was guided into a red bucket and taken to a safe location so that the glue could be removed completely.
The snake was seen crawling onto a porch of a house on Sandringham Drive earlier in the day. A hood was visible wherever it turned its head.
Officers from Animal Control moved the cameras back after confirming that it was the snake, trying to capture it before moving in.
911 call from that same home sparked the search in the early morning Tuesday.

The city of Raleigh, N.C., is the state capital. Following hours of consultation and preparation by Raleigh police and animal control officers, a glue trap ultimately trapped a venomous zebra cobra on a north Raleigh porch Wednesday night, capping an incident that drew widespread attention.
Glue was removed from the cobra's body by placing it in a red bucket and moving it to a safe location.
As WRAL's cameras captured it earlier in the day, a striped snake slithered out of the siding of a house on Sandringham Drive and onto a porch. When it lifted its head to look around, the top of its hood was visible.
After confirming it was the snake, Animal Control officers moved the camera crews back before moving in to capture it.
Early Tuesday, a 911 call from that home sparked the search.

It was a relief to neighbor Joan Nelson to have the ordeal over.
She says she feels safe and happy now. Now that I can go outside, I can walk on my deck and go outside. Nevertheless, I feel somewhat sorry for the snake.
The snake in question was found laying out on a porch in a north Raleigh neighborhood where a zebra cobra had been reported missing.
A zebra cobra can spit 9 feet long and is faster than most snakes, making morning dog walks extremely hazardous. The African Snakebite Institute cites the snake as extremely dangerous. As a result of the venom, a victim's nervous system could shut down.
Cobra poison causes immediate pain, swelling, irritation, vomiting, and diarrhea. Following a heavy fever and breathing problems, you might lose your breath and may die.
Dr. Salina Locke, a veterinarian with Avian and Exotic Animal Care, treats an array of animals.
The cobra in this species usually does not bite. They spray their venom more often -- they are very accurate and attack straight in the eye, according to her.
Due to the risks, Locke does not recommend this snake as a pet.
During sleep, most bites occur. Researchers found that bit individuals could suffer health issues for years to come.

In the afternoon of Tuesday, police searched a home in 6917 Chamonix Place, near the spot where the cobra was first spotted.
Four police officers visited the home in March to investigate an animal problem. On Monday and Tuesday, they returned after spotting the zebra cobra on a porch about a half mile away.
The county records indicate that Keith and Rebecca Gifford live at this address. A Facebook account associated with Keith Giffords name shows several images of snakes that he claims his son Christopher owns.
TikTok user Christopher Gifford has more than 460000 followers. He says he has a 7-foot-long zebra cobra on one of his posts.
