Cape Cobra
Next up is one THE most dangerous species of cobra in all of Africa. Largely due to the fact the Cape Cobra carries exceptionally potent venom and can be found around or in houses. Furthermore, the mortality rate is intensely high as it takes an hour (in severe cases) to ten hours (or more) for death to occur. Respiratory failure, due to the onset of paralysis, is also a symptom but an antivenom exists.
