Geocache Description:

Welcome to Egypt!
Cobra is any of various species of venomous snakes usually belonging to the family Elapidae, most of which can expand their neck ribs to form a widened hood.

This an Egyptian caching adventure.
Put yourself in the right frame of mind and you might see pyramids or experience camels trekking across the desert.




Not all snakes commonly referred to as cobras are of the same genus, or even of the same family. The name is short for cobra capo or capa Snake, which is Portuguese for "snake with hood", or "hood-snake".
When disturbed, most of these snakes can rear up and spread their necks (or hoods) in a characteristic threat display.
A favorite of snake charmers, cobras are found from southern Africa, through southern Asia, to some of the islands of Southeast Asia.

Cobra may refer to:
Naja, also known as typical cobras (with the characteristic ability to raise the front quarters of their bodies off the ground and flatten their necks in a threatening gesture), a group of venomous elapids found in Africa and Asia
