Black Mamba

Killer Snakes

If the black mamba’s scales aren’t black, then why is it called a “black” mamba? Can its venom kill a person? What do baby black mambas look like? Readers will discover the answers to these questions and more. Young snake lovers will learn just how amazing this African snake is, from its speed to its killer fangs. Detailed photographs show the black mamba in all its glory in its natural habitat.
