Africa's most venomous snakes
S1 • E40 Dec 1, 2008
Africa is home to some of the world's most venomous snakes but none are as poisonous as the black mamba- one drop of venom is powerful enough to kill up to 10 men. The Mozambiquan spitting cobra attacks from a distance spraying venom in its assailant's eye with pinpoint accuracy. The African rock Python uses its long body to squeeze the life out of its victim whilst the green Boomslang is able to perfectly disguise itself amongst the treetops. These snakes and many more silently rule the African bushveld from the undergrowth.
