    The black mamba being 12 feet or longer with such a potent venom displays something that I’ve only noticed in king cobras. Confidence. They seem to be very aware of just how deadly they are. Excellent work and video Coyote

    These snakes are absolutely terrifying, but also amazing as well. I'm glad that Karl and Mara clearly show respect when it comes to handling them and recognizing the danger. Even though they're in an environment that they can control they still realize that a snake is like a loaded gun and to treat it carefully no matter how "safe" you think you may be. The communication during the process was key and the results were outstanding. It amazes me just how fast the venom is released and takes hold. Kudos to them because the only way science can be used to make improvements to help others is by having people obtain samples to begin with. It's dangerous, but necessary. Great video.

      Agree 100%. I'm a south African from Durban, went away with a group of friends to this area called the Umkomaas valley. It has the highest density of black mambas in south Africa. We saw 2 Black mambas there. 1 darting across the water whilst river rafting, the 2nd in a tree off the path we were hiking. We were also told that a week prior a black mamba was found in one of the accommodations bathrooms and was removed and that we must be very aware of our surrounding. I've never been in such a heightened sense of awareness in my life whilst just doing simple mundane tasks 😂. Was awesome though

    I grew up in South Africa. I caught and kept snakes from 12 yrs old till into my 20s. I have handled most of them, and although I highly respect them all, I do not fear them. Except this one. Here I am, 65 yrs old and living in the rural northeast USA, and I am scared just watching a video of you handling a black. I have handled greens, which always seemed a little less apt to attack. But the black is too big, too strong, too fast, too smart, and too deadly for me to take on. Thanks for the video.

      @@frankievalentine6112 Video showed they have their own antivenom storage in the facility, but later on they also explain that black mamba venom gets neutralized very well by its antivenom! Unlike for other species of snake where recovery is a lot more complicated, he said he felt better immediately after the first dose which is like... beyond "best case" scenarios for other snake bites. Hemotoxic venoms are incredibly destructive long-term even with rapid antivenom administration. Black Mamba's venom being neurotoxic and neutralizing well is perhaps the two contradictory blessings about its lethality.

      As a snake owner I go to a lot of expo's. And there are the venom rooms. Now these rooms are away from all other snakes, reptiles, amphibia's, rodents.... the room can immediately be closed off. The snakes sell enclosures parts are in a glass locked cage. Then their own box is also triple taped down, or with locks....
      Last time we had some childs in the room. And the constant hissing.... rattling.... the kids started crying. I also have to admit.... hearing all those sounds.... its chills. Your complete instinct is just saying.... danger. I saw people freeze, run, back away. And these animals were locked in a box in a box. You know fear when they make themselves known.

    The black mamba, for me, is the ultimate "dangerous" snake. Flighty, highly athletic, intelligent & calculated. That being said I do not want in any way to villainize these snakes, as Coyote said, they do not want to bite people, they want to get away from them & a bite is always defensive. They are imo one of the most majestic creatures on this planet.

    I saw an Easrern Green mamba in the wild in Tanzania this spring. Beautiful and what a surprise. We were looking for birds. And as far as a Black Mamba, I've seen several. Both on the tar road going north to Punda Marie rest camp in Kruger Park. The first one was laying across the road looking like a gun metal gray fire hose. Slammed on the brakes and scrambled to get the camera out the window. No luck, the snake turned on his body and streaked back across the road. Fast. Easily over 10 feet. The second sighting years later was a smaller version.

    Ok but I’m pretty sure that mamba could have got Coyote if it wanted to at 15:30. I have a feeling Karl may have momentarily lost control of the snake at that point. You can even see where he tried to grab it with the tongs but missed the first time and in that fraction of a second it got within striking range.

      Perhaps Coyote already has so many venoms in him, that the snake didn't want to mess with him?

    I`m from South Africa, I do enjoy hunting, I`ve caught and dealt with a few black mamba`s in the wild. And trust me, it`s the only snake that always gives me the sweats. hunting season is normally mating season, don`t get between them and their lairs. The tried and trusted method is: back up slowly and choose a different route. They tend to just withdraw. I`ve caught one or 2 juveniles in the dark behind the farmhous. We are so used to Cape cobra`s(geelslang) that the only way you identify the mamba is when the motion sensitive lights come on and you see the inside of the mouth.

    Thank you for the channel! I would like to relate a personal experience in my banana farming days on the Sabaan River between Sabi and Hazyview in the South African Lowveld. This area is known globally as a highly snake populated area in Southern Africa. I'd already experienced close calls and captured many specimens of Mzambique Sitting Cobra, Boomsng and Vine Snake. One day we were harvesting Cavendish bananas for export to Greece. These bananas are typically bd u in the leaves of the pant. Since we were cutting marginally younger bunches to be riened on the voyage we had to resize the target bunches. I was scouting ahead of the harvest crew with my induna ( headman or foreman) to mark the target size for the crew to earn the size. There was a borderline bunch I was checking out when I heard a oud thwack from the Indian's panga ( machete) next to my left ear. I saw a large object fall to the ground thinking it was the ole prop which sorted the plant falling down until I saw it writhing. I went ice cold when I realized I was looking at a huge black mamba writhing on the ground with it's head almost detached. My induna said to me I was very, very lucky. It had pulled back to strike at my knack when he dispatched it with his machete. We were 40 minutes away from the nearest medical intervention and with a neck strike, that is in many cases a fatal event. It was 3,92m long and took 3 hours to sto moving. I consider myself extremely fortunate to be alive today and owe a debt of thanks to my quick thinking colleague for reacting so quickly. I have enormous respect for all wildlife and will not take the life of any creature unless absoltely necessary.

    _"The venom of a black mamba can kill a human in four hours if, say, bitten on the ankle or the thumb. However, a bite to the face or torso can bring death from paralysis within 20 minutes." Now, you should listen to this, 'cause this concerns you. "The amount of venom that can be delivered from a single bite can be gargantuan." You know, I've always liked that word... 'gargantuan'... so rarely have an opportunity to use it in a sentence. "If not treated quickly with antivenom, 10 to 15 milligrams can be fatal to human beings. However, the black mamba can deliver as much as 100 to 400 milligrams of venom from a single bite. In Africa, the saying goes 'In the bush, an elephant can kill you, a leopard can kill you, and a black mamba can kill you. But only with the mamba is death sure.' Hence its handle, 'Death Incarnate.'" Pretty cool, huh?_ - Elle Driver, Kill Bill Volume 2
