Black Mamba

Black mambas are the longest venomous snakes in Africa. They can measure over 8 feet (over 2 meters) long and despite their length, black mambas can be extremely fast when they feel threatened. The term “black” comes from the color of the inside of the snake’s mouth. The skin of a black mamba can range from green to gray. All questions about black mambas can be directed here.

What is the most venamous snake in the world?

No do not retard my answer is correct the king cobra (ophiophagus Hannah) is far less toxic than D.polyleps, although due to size it has more toxin.

My origninal answer is this and i ask that you leave it since you obviously know nothing on the subject. I have worked with D.polylepis and O.Hannah so need to know this information for my and my collegues safety.

>>>original answer>>>

No snake is poisonous, they are Venomous, which means their toxin is Injected rather than ingested.

The black mamba is not the most venomous snake By LD50(the most common method of mesuring potancy) count either, the Inland Taipan Oxyuranus microlepidotus is regarded as the most toxic, although due to human population and aggression the Black Mamba (dendroaspis polylepis) Kills more people each year. Infact no deaths have been attributed to O.microlepidotus since records began

I believe the taipan is on drop for drop of venom the dealiest snake in the world. It is only found in Australia.

Allow me to throw in two cents worth, according to the most recent (2010) LD50 conclusions, the most poisonous snakes are as follows:

A:

(If bitten and venom is injected)

The most venomous snake on earth is the Belcher's Sea Snake (Hydrophis Belcheri) or the Faint Banded Sea Snake, some consider the Inland Taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus) an/or the Beaked Sea Snake (Enhydrina schistosa) to be the most toxic, however, with recent and more accurate studies 2010 prove the Belcheri has a 100 times more toxic venom then the two above or any other snake on earth.

It has a paddle-like tail, breathes air and can hold it's breath up to 8 hours, a few milligrams of venom can kill over a thousand people.

It's habitat has a wide range in the South Pacific.

Excluding the Belcher's Sea Snake the next most venomous snakes on earth according to their venom rating are:

2- Inland Tiapan (Oxyuranus Microlepidotus).

3- Common Indian Krait (Bungarus Caeruleus).

4- Philippine Cobra (Naja Philippinensis).

5- King Cobra (Ophiophagus Hanna).

6- Russell's Viper (Vipera Russellii).

7- Black Mamba (Dendroaspis Polylepis).

8- Yellow Jawed Tommygoff (Bothrops Asper).

9- Multibanded krait (Bungarus Multicinctus).

10- Tigar Snake (Notechis Scutatus).

11- Jararacussu (Bothrops Jararacussu).

How many Qalandar are there in world and where?

People say that there are 3 qalanders in the world. But only Allah knows, how many qalandars are in the world or history.

Two are man which are called qaldandar, and one women called half-qalandar. That's the reason thay are called DHAAI QALANDAR by people.

Three Qalandars:

1. lal Shahbaz qalandar in sehwanr Pakistan

2. bu ali shah qalandar in panipat India

3. rabia basri qalandar in basra Iraq

However, there is no proof that the woman has half-position in the sight of Allah(God). Because, Allah clearly said in the Holy Quran that any Muslim Man OR Woman will be awarded equal positions and awards for their deeds. There are several ayats in the Holy Quran which you can self-check OR ask by any Hafiz or Scholar.

But, there is no ayat where Allah ever said that he will award half-credit to woman in return of her deeds so it is proved that the "Half-Qalandar" for Woman is wrong.

Banakon snake is a king cobra or a black mamba?

Banakon resembles a Black Mamba more than a King Cobra in terms of physical look. In contrast to King Cobra, who has a thicker body than Banakon, Banakon has a thinner and longer body. Moreover, the Banakon moves faster than a King Cobra. I hope this species will be the subject of additional research.

Accidentally brought here by the grass straw plant, which was introduced for the purpose of feeding livestocks.

What are black mamba babies clled?

Black Mambas breed only once a year. Breeding season is in Spring which is around the month of September. Eggs develop for around 60 days inside the female. After that, the female seeks a suitable place (like an abandoned termite mound) to lay its eggs. Around 15 to 25 eggs are laid and guarded aggressively by the Mother. Eggs incubate for around 60 days before hatching. The young ones are about 50 cms in length at birth and are totally independent. They hunt and feed for themselves right from day one. They are also venomous at birth. Though their venom is as toxic as the adults, the quantity is much lower.
