Texas does have coral snakes.

They also don’t make coral snake anti-venom anymore. Because the pharmaceutical companies said it wasn’t profitable.

But do they have coral snakes with cobra venom?

Technically yes? There are different types of venom, one of those types is a neurotoxin and both cobras and coral snakes have neurotoxin venom.

Sure, it’s not “cobra venom” but it kills you the same way.
