Hooded snake (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cobra

'hooded snake' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for cobra that I've seen before include "Type of snake" , "Reptile (found in Cabinet Office Briefing Room A?)" , "One with hood" , "Venomous hooded snake" , "Hooded snake - AC model of old sports car" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Mirror, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, the LA Times, The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, The Guardian, The Telegraph, the Evening Standard and the Universal.
