Tracking and Filming a HUGE Black Mamba at NIGHT (Behind The Scenes)

https://youtu.be/rOBL3J4FTns?si=Hh1Xok95eW-gNvPm

Behind the scenes with our camera team as they track and film a truly immense Black Mamba [0:11] after the sun goes down. This legendary snake is known for its speed and shy nature [1:26] , which makes finding and filming one a monumental task, let alone doing it under the cover of darkness. It gives you a real perspective on the challenges of wildlife filmmaking.

The Black Mamba is vital to its ecosystem as an apex predator [2:23], and seeing it in its natural environment, moving so powerfully and purposefully, is always a humbling experience. As the great South African naturalist J.H. Sclater noted, "No snake is more feared, or with better reason."

We want to share these moments to highlight the incredible, wild places that must be protected. Give the video a like if you respect the work these guys do!

There’s something unforgettable about watching an African Black Eagle riding the thermals. They hardly seem to flap at all, just tilt their wings and let the wind do the work. You really get a sense of how perfectly adapted they are to these wide open landscapes and rugged cliffs.

Moments like this remind you how wild and resilient these birds truly are, even as their habitats slowly change around them. If you ever spot one in flight, take a second to watch how effortlessly it moves. It’s a masterclass in power and grace.
