00:00:00here in Africa a Boomslang is looking
00:00:04for its favorite meal a chameleon the
00:00:07Boomslang is one of Africa’s longest
00:00:09tree snakes a perfectly camouflaged
00:00:12ambush hunter
00:00:13it has hemo toxic venom small amounts
00:00:17cause hemorrhaging even death even in
00:00:19humans
00:00:22now the chameleon is dangerous to its
00:00:24own prey of course great eyesight and a
00:00:28tongue of glue equals lunch the
00:00:33chameleon has skin that takes on the
00:00:35colour of its surroundings and eyes that
00:00:37can spot food or danger in almost any
00:00:40direction but the chameleon is no match
00:00:43for the Boomslang the snake sees right
00:00:47through the chameleons camouflage
00:00:51but it’s still on its own food hunt and
00:00:53has no idea that it itself is being
00:00:57hunted an African legend has it that the
00:01:01gods entrusted the secret of eternal
00:01:03life to the chameleons as a gift for
00:01:05mankind but the chameleon was too slow
00:01:08and death entered our world just as it
00:01:15enters the chameleons world here the
00:01:18Boomslang has super-strength venom slow
00:01:22acting but effective destroying the
00:01:24vital parts of the victim’s blood it has
00:01:28solid fangs the venom is delivered via
00:01:31special grooves on the surface the
00:01:34Boomslang can now enjoy the delights of
00:01:37its fresh meal
