Black Mamba

Countless deaths are attributed in Africa to the Black Mamba – on top of that it is renowned for its awesome striking ability and toxicity density. In addition, we should mention that they can strike up to 12 times in succession and in addition, each single bite provides ample quantities of deadly neurotoxins. How could it get worse, possibly? Well, with only a single bite, they can also inject enough venom into their victim to kill you 25 times over. A Black Mamba bite is nearly 100 percent fatal if left untreated at all — death can occur in as little as 15 minutes.

Boomslang

Now the Boomslang is responsible for many deaths all around the globe, but primarily in South Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa. Not only are they fast, they can also climb trees and are loaded with venomous toxins, and when they bite, they can open their jaws up to 170 degrees creepily. It’s important to remember that when the symptoms occur, you won’t feel the effects of a bite immediately, a few hours can pass. The greatest mistake you can make, however is to underestimate the life-threatening bite of boomslang. Get aid and as soon as possible, get the antivenom.
