Why the black mamba is named after the inside of its mouth, not its skin

The Black Mamba, often feared due to its reputation, sports an olive or brown hue. Its name comes from the striking black interior of its mouth, visible when it feels threatened. As Africa’s longest venomous snake, it can exceed four metres in length. Found in diverse habitats like savannas and rocky hills, this species is essential for maintaining the ecosystem.
