Cobras don't have large fangs in the same manner as rattle snakes they actually have smaller teeth which usually take some gnawing in order to fully inject their venom. Cobras are know to strike like that as a warning sign but if you would like to know my honest opinion it looks as if the mouth is kept shut by some means.

That is most likely the case. Cobra "charmers" may use a variety of methods to render their cobras less dangerous, including removing the fangs and possibly venom sacs, as well as sewing the mouth shut.
I think that this one had its mouth shut, otherwise that kid would have had cuts on his head, and he would have been screaming as a result. That, or else it might have latched on and started chewing.

A bite on the head could still result in envenomation. If the skin is pierced, some venom will still be present and could find its way into the bloodstream.

The snake can probably re eat the hippo 5-6 times
