Average Lifespan: Unknown Large Egyptian cobra without its hood flared Coloration and Appearance The Egyptian cobra is a large species of snake known for its large and depressed head, cervical ribs, and broad snout. Egyptian cobras possess relatively large and rounded pupils, along with a long body that is cylindrical in shape. Tails on this species are also quite long and are proportionate to the animal’s overall body length. The coloration of the Egyptian cobra can vary significantly between each specimen. Nevertheless, most members of this species are either brown or black in appearance, with light or dark mottling and “teardrops” beneath the eyes.

This land is Morocco, a beautiful paradise that everyone wanted to claim as their own. There were invaders century upon century of invaders. From present-day Lebanon came the Phoenicians, followed by the Carthaginians of Tunis. Of course, the Romans entered the scene (146 B.C.) and held fast for more than 200 years. Berbers swept in next, removing the last of Roman authority in 429 A.D. Fast-forward little more than 300 years later and the Arabs descended as ....

This could be just one vote away from being approved. Residents showed up at city hall Thursday and they were not happy. County records show the Savannah Housing Authority still owns the land. But we have a letter from HUD that states it approved the sale way back in November of 2017. And, the project was also approved last month by the city’s planning commission. ....
