RE: The most Venomous Snake in Africa - by @mambaman

in #snake6 years ago

Wonderful picture... hmmmm...???why is it easier to be bitten by the black mamba rather than the boomslang yet that boomslang has more dangerous venom than the black mamba????
Do they differ in behavior??

Sort:  

Black Mamba are by far more likely to bite than a Boomslang.
A Boomslang is more timid. A Black Mamba more nervous
The Boomslang venom is slow acting. ( kill a man in 7 days) The Black Mamba venom is fast acting. ( kill a man in a few hours)

Thanks for information...
Am humbled.
