Description: Website: ojatrovisuals.com Patreon: Patreon.com/ojatro Google: plus.google.com/+ojatro/postst Donate: paypal.me/Ojatro Black mambas are territorial and hunt for food throughout the day time. They usually have a favorite basking spot near water where the snake absorbs the early morning warmth on a rock or in a tree. The mamba stays alert throughout the entire time, watching out for potential prey or even predators such as large birds of prey. The most chilling facts are documented in reports on rogue black mambas. Snake expert C.P. Ionides wrote in his book “Mambas and Man-Eaters” that eight people were killed in one night near Mtwara in South Tanzania. On March 7th 1954 Ionides captured a ten foot female basking in a tree near the village and sold it to the London zoo. No further death from snake bites have been reported since its capture. Charles Pitman described yet another rogue black mamba incident in his book “Snakes of Uganda”, in which an aggressive black mamba began chasing after life stock and eventually killing eleven villagers in Northern Rhodesia within a year. A large black mamba pursued two wildlife filmmakers in Tanzania in 2010. The frightened men escaped into their vehicle and to everyone’s surprise the agitated black mamba even attacked the car to gain entry before the vehicle drove away. Reports on rogue black mambas are rare but they do occur occasionally just like individual king cobras that chase and kill forest workers in Asia, while passing through its territory during matting season. Local authorities posted warning signs in specific areas to avoid fatalities.This stock footage was recorded by Heiko Kiera aka Ojatro in 2010.
