King Cobras diet mainly consists of eating other snakes, so where you see king cobras you are likely to find other snakes. I am not an authority on ecosystems in Sarawak and cannot comment on what snakes are not in Sarawak but I too have seen pit vipers and bearded boar and proboscis monkeys in bako national park living side by side. By the way if you see a king cobra stay away and treat with great caution as they are one of the most deadly snakes in the world due to the shear quantity of venom they can inject. regards George

we get king cobras in our garden here in singapore, but in sarwak we were surprised 2 see 3 Pit Vipers on an island we went to visit. we also saw (on the same small island) proboscis monkeys and bearded pigs-i'm not sure wether this is unusual to have the three living in perfect harmony. i have been trying to find out but have had no luck so far.please tell me asap what snakes you dont get in sarawak (if that is possible) plus wether it is unusual to have these three species living together in such a small place. THANKS
