Elapids are a family of venomous snakes known for their fixed front fangs and potent neurotoxic venom. This family includes well-known species such as cobras, mambas, and coral snakes. Elapids are found in various habitats around the world, primarily in tropical and subtropical regions. These snakes are characterized by their slender bodies and vibrant colors, which can serve as warning signals to potential predators. Elapids primarily feed on small mammals, birds, and other reptiles, using their venom to immobilize prey quickly. Their unique adaptations make them fascinating subjects of study in herpetology.
