Black Mamba

Deadly court predator

Black mamba is a highly venomous snake native to sub-Saharan Africa, known for its speed and aggression when threatened.

The name refers to the dark coloring inside its mouth rather than its grayish-brown body.

Black mamba is also the nickname of basketball player Kobe Bryant, adopted for the snake's lethal reputation: He called himself the Black Mamba.
