I'm afraid that although I agree that Cobra is the answer sought, the question setter is revealing their ignorance by suggesting that the Cobra is slippery, it is, as are most snakes, quite a rough, interestingly textured creature. I believe that some aquatic snakes produce an oily film, but these are the exception rather than the rule.
