There are over 3,000 species of snake on the planet, and they are found everywhere except in New Zealand, Greenland, Iceland, Antarctica, and Ireland. Each of them boasts impressive and unique characteristics and is differentiated by size, color, and venom efficacy. This video beams the light on some snake species that grow to immense proportion. Prepare to be amazed as I take you through the list of the ten biggest snakes in the world!
10. Black mamba
The black mamba is the largest venomous snake in Africa. They are covered with olive, brown, green, or grey but are rarely black. It measures between 7.2 and 8.9 feet long, but some species grow up to 13 feet. The longest one in history is confirmed to be 14.11 feet. Not only does this animal clinch the price for one of the longest snakes in the world, but it is also the most aggressive and fastest, with speeds of up to 200km/h. They are known to attack even without provocation. Their venom is toxic and can cause a human to collapse within 30 minutes if not treated with antivenom.
They hold smaller animals in their mouth until the venom takes effect, but larger prey suffers two strikes until it is weak and swallowed. Females lay up to 20 eggs and incubate them for 2-3 months. Babies are independent and fend for themselves immediately after birth. Although they are climbers, they prefer the solitude of the ground because that's where they lie in wait for an unsuspecting victim.
