That looks like a Black Mamba, one of the deadliest snakes in the world. You should tan the skin and make it into a nice accessory.

Black mambas are mostly longer and more swift. It would have been a little difficult to kill if it were a mamba. But still I don't rule the possibility that this might be a baby mamba though. IMO

so when an animal poses a threat to ones lif, one should pet it and sing kumbaya ba?... I'll take it you have never encountered a dangerous animal posing a threat to your life before, That's why you're comfortable saying what you're saying...

@about 9:30PM tonight; I was returning from the church along with my wife, she had almost held the snake while about to open the door. Suddenly she sighted the black deadly snake and retreated. The snake had entered d net door and was resting on the door handle near d knocker.

I did the needful.

Last week I killed a green scorpion @my backyard but the thread didn't make front page.

I also stepped on a reptile this morning on a fashola flowered walkway in my neighborhood, thank God I was wearing a thick footwear. I didn't kill it though but my stepping on it left it weak & scrambling along the walkway.

Reminds me of my stay at the Army Barracks in Minna. The one opposite NECO office.
Snakes are just like lizards there! Same with Rukuba [not sure of the spelling]barracks in Jos. Guess it's because of the rocks in those places.

Nigerians are always quick in killing wild animals. This is a harmless juvenile African house snake. They normally live close to human dwellings, where they get easy food like, rodents, small lizards, and sometimes birds.

[size=13pt]How To Scare Snakes Away?[/size]

Movements and Vibrations

Snakes are very fearful creatures so it doesn't take a lot to scare them away. The best method to scare them is to make fast movements. A lot of times, just chasing the snake away works very well. Another thing to try is to stomp hard on the ground. The snake will not hear the noise, but it will get scared off by the vibrations the stomping makes.

Eliminate Hiding Areas

If you don't want snakes around, you need to reduce hiding areas for snakes. Common places that snakes like to hide are in piles of wood and rocks, tall grass, under boards and sheets of metal, and in brush or shrubs.

Eliminate Sources of Food

Snakes feed on rats, mice, lizards, frogs and other small animals. Eliminating the population of these animals around your home greatly reduces the number of snakes. Snakes are attracted to places where they can easily find food. If they have a hard time finding food in a certain area, they will not stay around for very long.

How to Avoid Getting Bit

To avoid getting bit by a snake, you need to always wear shoes while you are outside. Even if you are not positive there are snakes around, it is better to be safe than risk getting bit. Never get too close to a snake or try to touch it. A snake will only attack if it feels threatened. Give the snake plenty of time and space to escape instead of trying to attack it.

Who's talking about capturing a snake in Nigeria?
That snake doesn't look like an endangered specie so bleep it.
Una sha, so that when it bites someone now, a thread will surface...'Snake bites Woman' then you start attacking the husband cos he stood there admiring the snake...

What he killed was an African House Snake not Black mamba.

Contrary to what its name would suggest, black mambas are actually brownish in color, ranging from olive to greyish tones, with paler bellies. They are named for the coloration of the inside of their mouths, which is a deep, inky black. Similar to cottonmouths, when threatened a mamba will open its mouth to show the black lining as a warning signal.

Black mambas have coffin-shaped heads and are lithe, athletic snakes. According to National Geographic, they can grow to be 14 feet long (4.25 meters), though their average length is around 8 feet (2.4 m). These giants can live up to 11 years in the wild. Black mambas reside in South and East Africa’s savannas, rocky hills and open woodlands
