Black mamba

Dendroaspis polylepis
Gbasara aha ya: "Mamba" comes from the Zulu word "imamba". Its scientific name means "tree asp" and "many scales" in Ancient Greek. The "black" name refers to the inside of its mouth, not its skin.1

The black mamba is a long, fast, highly venomous snake that lives in parts of sub-Saharan Africa. It can climb trees as well as move across the ground. It is one of the most feared snakes in Africa because its venom acts quickly.1

It attacks people only when threatened or cornered. A survey in South Africa from 1957 to 1979 recorded 2,553 venomous snakebites, of which 75 were confirmed as black mamba bites. The World Health Organization classes it as a snake of medical importance.1

When threatened, it opens its inky-black mouth, spreads a narrow neck flap, hisses and may strike several times in quick succession.1

Eziokwu

1

It is the second-longest venomous snake in the world, after the king cobra. It is the longest venomous snake in Africa.1

2

It can lift as much as 40% of its body length off the ground, so bites can land on the upper body.1

Honey badgers and mongooses have some resistance to its venom, and they sometimes hunt mambas.1

4

Its digestive system can fully digest a meal in eight to ten hours.1

5

Its fangs can be up to 6.5 mm long.1

6

Its name in some tribal languages means "dassie catcher", because it sometimes hunts the rock hyrax, also called a dassie.1
