The Indian cobra also known as the Spectacled cobra, Asian cobra or Binocellate cobra is a species of the genus ''Naja'' found in the Indian subcontinent and a member of the "big four", the four species which inflict the most snakebites on humans in India. This snake is revered in Indian mythology and culture, and is often seen with snake charmers. It is now protected in India under the ''Indian Wildlife Protection Act'' .
