Thank you for the correction! I was just scrolling down hopeful to see a well-informed input. I'm sure they don't know a black mamba, and how tough it is to be killed!

Lol it was really funny u see a black mamba on the wall n u think u can hit it ...it was really funny

Stop miseducating people guys. Black mambas can't be found in Nigeria. This is a cobra

mrvitalis:
For heaven's sake black mamba is gray or green in color its called black mamba because inside the mouth is black

I don't know the species but I know this can't be black mamba nor cobra.
I know the name in my local language.

PrecisionFx:
The black mamba isn't black in color n the black mamba isn't found in Nigeria

People tend to classify black snakes on this forum black mamba.

Are black mambas actually black in color?

The most poisonous snake is Inland taipan

It is not a black mamba. But a West African common house snake. Lamprophis fuliginosus! Very common in PortHarcourt.

That a snake is black doesn't make it a black mamba.
Infact black mambas ain't black.

We don't have black mamba in Nigeria . Please verify for claim before you post next time. People outside Nigeria are on this forum.

I'm not a snake expert but a good expert should tell what specie this is, I've read somewhere that black mamba is not found in Nigeria but I really don't know the location of the OP.
This snake looks dangerous though

He's educating you. Learn!

Modernist:
What are you saying.

You made a more reasonable comment.

On nairaland, all black snakes are classified as black mamba without any form of research.

Bad knowledge are more rampant on this forum

Pls you guys just have to stop killing snakes because they don’t harm, snakes are friendly only if you armless.

It is not in anyway dangerous. A nocturnal snake, climbs walls as well and is called the West African common house snake: Lamprophis fuliginosus.

myeducite:

Rant all u like, that snake isn't a black mamba. The internet is there for u, type Black mamba on Google n view it's pictures.

If u don't want to do that, then rant on.

Woww, good to know and that means you see and handle several species of snakes? I'm not sure you can make heaven bros, I can't even stand the sight live

Yes!! It is mostly found around human homes where it feeds on rats and lizards that are attracted to our food.

Some idiots deserves Phd. in misinformation that is not a Black Mamba. Rather an harmless house snake. It feeds on rodents, Wall Gecko and grasshoppers. i have had about 6-7 encounter with them.


Yes, there can climb, depending on how rough the surface of your walls is. Be Informed

Yap! I'm a wildlife lecturer from the Rivers State University. I do that for a living.

You're just scaring me the more here, chai!
So I should now be scared of snakes in an urban city while thinking it's only when I get into the bush or rural area

WaywardSon:
Black Mamba
Very venomous and deadly.
Where there's one, there's usually more, check your surroundings very carefully

I killed 4 in a new apartment I moved in to last year. Miraculously saved from being bitten twice..
