The Mali cobra is a spitting cobra from West Africa. It lives in grasslands, open forests and savannas, and it can spit venom at anything it sees as a threat. Knowing what it looks like and how it behaves helps people keep a safe distance.1

Botlhole jo e bo tsenyang bo dira eng?

Its venom is spat towards opponents, rather than being delivered only by a bite. The venom contains postsynaptic neurotoxins, which attack the nerves, and cardiotoxins, which harm the heart. Together they cause cytotoxic activity, meaning they damage cells.1

E kotsi go le kae go batho?

Kotsi go batho: E kotsi thataE ka bolaya motho yo o sa alafiweng.

It will bite if it is handled or accidentally stepped on, and it will spit venom if it is provoked further.1

E dira eng fa e tshogile?

When disturbed it tries to escape quickly to cover. If cornered, it rears up and spreads its hood, and if provoked further it spits venom.1

Fa e loma kgotsa e tshwela

Dintlha

1

The Mali cobra spits its venom at its opponents rather than relying only on biting.1

2

Its venom contains two kinds of toxin: one that attacks the nerves and one that harms the heart.1

3

Adults are active by both day and night, while juveniles come out only in daylight.1

4

It often climbs into small bushes, so it is not only a ground-dweller.1
