The Black Mamba is probably the most feared snake in Africa but less people frequently get bitten by it in comparison to the Puff Adder. The Puff Adder is great at camouflage and also really sluggish. As a result, people don't see the lazy danger noodle on the path and tread on it then get bit with two needle fangs.
The Rinkhals and the Mozambique Spitting Cobras both can play dead. Sometimes people try to mess with a "dead" snake and get bit.
Interesting fact, the Black Mamba is not named after its skin color, but rather the color of its mouth.
