Despite the consultation and preparation by animal control officers, a glue trap snared a venomous zebra cobra on a north Raleigh porch Wednesday night, capping a 48-hour case involving North Carolina media.
It was taken to a safer location to be fully cleaned after it was guided into the bucket and guided out.

WRAL's cameras caught the snake the previous day crawling onto the porch of a house on Sandringham Drive. When it lifted its head to look around, its hood was visible.
When officers confirmed it was the snake, they walked back from the camera crew before moving in to try and capture it.
911 call from that same house sparked the search at the beginning of Tuesday.

Snakes can spit up to nine feet and are faster than most snakes. A morning dog walk turns into a dangerous event when the snake spits this wide. Approximately 60% of all snakebite deaths occur in Africa. An animal's venom could cause the victim's nervous system to shut down.
Those stung by the poison would experience severe pain, swelling, rashes, nausea, and diarrhea as a result. A severe fever and breathing issues could cause respiratory failure.

There is no evidence that this species of cobra bites. The venom from them, she said, is typically sprayed. She said they are extremely accurate and shoot straight for the eyes.
The snake is not recommended as a pet by Locke due to its risk.
Sleeping is when most bites occur. Bite victims may suffer health problems for years, research reveals.
