Almost invisible, the African boomslang lies in deadly wait. When it strikes, it easily kills. That's because few snakes are as venomous as this silent killer. Part of the series Lethal Strikers: Africa's Deadliest Snakes, African Boomslang: Africa's Most Venomous Snake offers more than just an introduction to this deadly but beautiful reptile. It's also packed with full-color photos and information on how this snake lives and kills.
