Africa is home to many amazing venomous snakes. This continent has many ecosystems. We will explore deserts, savannas and rainforests of subSaharan Africa. This second episode is about venomous snakes living in savannas. Boomslang (Dispholidus typus) typically lives in savannas and woodlands. You will see beautiful green males and a grey female. This episode also shows the Southern twig snake (Thelotornis capensis) and Usambara vine snake (Thelotornis usambaricus). Savannas and grasslands are home for several species of spitting cobras. Rinkhals (Hemachatus haemachatus) is not a true cobra. You will see it play dead! This episode shows spitting behavior of Blacknecked spitting cobra (Naja nigricollis) and Mozambique spitting cobra (Naja mossambica). Later we visit Nick Evans, a snake rescuer from Durban and you will see him rescue several Black mambas. Black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) is the most feared snake of Africa and this episode shows it in its natural habitat. At the end we will visit Musambwa island, a snake island with Brown forest cobras (Naja subfulva).
