A cobra comes gliding along a green riverbank in Singapore, straight toward an otter den where two small pups are waiting at the entrance. Their mother sees it coming and steps out, placing herself squarely between the visitor and her babies. She rises up tall and calls out; the cobra rises too and opens its wide hood. Then it darts forward once β and she leans clear just in time. Now it is her turn: paw after paw, she bats at the cobra's head again and again, fast and fearless, giving it no moment to recover. At last the cobra lowers its head, turns, and glides away up the bank into the tall grass β neck flat and low, the way a cobra always travels. From high above, the riverbank settles back into quiet β and mother is still standing guard at the door of the den.
