The longest venomous snake in the world is the King Cobra, with one specimen reaching over 18.5 feet long.
Several other venomous snakes - such as the bushmaster, eastern diamondback rattlesnake, or gaboon viper - may reach a greater weight than the king cobra even though they are much shorter.
The appropriate word to use is "venomous", not "poisonous", because venom refers to a toxin that is injected by the animal, whereas poisonous animals are those who spread their toxin by being ingested or through contact with the skin.
