I've seen some really agro snouted cobras, but that one in picture tops them all. He is borderline insane.
Mambas are actually friendly, and very misunderstood
okay, maybe just misunderstood _________________ ngiyakuthanda Sonvanger |

Nice pics there, but black mambas freak me out a bit. I think it's their mouths! _________________

@lol93 Mambas freak out many people
@SiUK He is a big boy, around 3,5 metres
To watch them feed gives you new found respect for their ability. They have a strike range second to none, repetitive strike speed second to none, reaction time second to none and a kill time I have yet to see beaten.
Very dangerous indeed _________________ ngiyakuthanda Sonvanger |
