Physical Description Boomslangs are long, slender snakes with small, stubby, egg-shaped heads and very large eyes. The average length of an adult is 1.2 to 1.5 meters. Since these snakes are long and slender, they can move through the trees swiftly to catch prey or flee from danger. They exhibit sexual dimorphism because the female and male differ in color. The females are generally a greenish-brown color with a light shade of brown on their bellies. Males, however, are much more colorful and can exhibit a variety of colors. They can be a deep, olive-green or bright green with black outlining of their scales. The males have also been seen with a dark brown or black dorsal scales and a bright yellow or gray belly. Early in the life of boomslangs, they are grey and have bright yellow throats with black specks. It may take a couple of years for young snakes to attain their adult color. Colubrids in general have relatively large scales on their belly. Boomslangs have an average of nineteen rows of very keeled scales. They also typically have nine large scales on their head. (Marais, 2004; Ricciuti, 2001; Toit, 1980) Dispholidus typus is classified as a member of Solenoglypha because of their ability to fold their fangs back into their mouth when unused. Dispholidus typus is considered one of the most venomous of these rear-fanged snakes. When they bite, it appears as though they are chewing because of their rear-fangs. It is possible for boomslangs to open their mouth one-hundred seventy degrees. They primarily have very potent hemotoxic venom that they inject into their victim, attacking their circulatory system. This venom stops the clotting ability of blood causing the victim to bleed to death both internally and externally. This slow-acting venom causes symptoms to start occurring in the victim several hours after contact and can be fatal if proper treatment is not given.

The giraffe were actually two young males sparring.

Snake is a green mamba. Very poisonous but not as bad as the black mamba. You miss a lot if you don’t have binoculars in a nature reserve,especially for birding.

it's definitely a Boomslang

Die Schlange scheint offensichtlich da zu wohnen. Die haben wir 11/23 auch schon gesehen im Hide 😉

Haha, das ist ja der Knaller. Ja, wir sind bei den Tieren zu Besuch u. nicht umgekehrt.

@johandevilliers1971 2 ай бұрын

The shape of the head is that of a mamba not a boomslang. My book says a boomslang has green eyes.

@HolamundoCH 2 ай бұрын

Ah, ok, thanks.

@GregRoyce-g2y 22 күн бұрын

Not a boomslang or Mamba. Most likely a Spotted Bush Snake. often found in and around buildings and fairly comfortable around humans.

Green mamba is generally larger bodied than boomslang. It could be a boomslang. There is also the spotted bush snake. Spotted bush snakes are a lot more common and not venomous. I will post information on the spotted bush snake asap.

Really. That's amazing. We only saw it through the big camera lense and could not figure it out as it was already getting a bit dark. Thanks for letting us know!

@@HolamundoCH There is also no more hunting permitted on Mkhuze since the early 2000's, while the signs and infrasture is still there it has long since stopped. Mkhuze is one of the origin populations in KZN of black rhino and fortunately governments has recognized its importance. I am glad you got to see what you did and video is awesome!
