@earthtouchtv: Open wide. The black mamba is one of Africa's most feared snakes. Myths abound about this reptile's menacing reputation and deadly bite. In truth, black mambas – like most snakes – are timid and prefer to shy away from confrontation. Named for the inky, black colouration on the inside of their mouths – something they'll use as a threat display to deter any would-be attackers – they are remarkably well-adapted to the savannahs, rocky hills and open woodlands they call home. #snake #snakes #blackmamba #snakesoftiktok #wildlife #nature #animals #EarthTouchTV
