What is a "ringhals"?

A ringhals, also known as the ring-necked spitting cobra, is a venomous snake found in southern Africa. It is known for its distinctive black body with yellow rings around its neck. The ringhals is notable for its ability to spit venom accurately at potential threats, often aiming for the eyes. While not aggressive, it can become defensive when cornered, displaying its hood and spitting venom as a form of self-defense.
