Naja siamensis (Black And White Spitting Cobra, Indo-chinese Spitting Cobra, Siamese Cobra) - stock photo
This species is heavily harvested in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Lao PDR for both domestic use and export to China, where it is used in traditional medicine. The species is also exported between Indochinese countries for medicinal use. This snake is sometimes harvested for the skin trade, and it is also exploited for snake wine, where it is among the most commonly-found species. There is an export ban in Thailand. The species is successfully bred in captivity in Vietnam, and many restaurants in Vietnam are now supplied from captive-bred sources, although this may not suppress demand for wild-caught animals.
