Online. Untreated, the bite of the black mamba has a fatality rate of 100 percent, making it a killer among killers on a continent where it is thought that nearly 20,000 people die of snake bites each year. Now snake handlers and Swaziland residents Thea Litschka-Koen and her husband, Clifton, are trying to save lives and change attitudes about Africa’s deadliest snake. “Black Mamba” premieres on PBS Sunday, November 8, 2009 at 8pm (check local listings) and is part of the 28th season of the Peabody and Emmy award-winning series produced by Thirteen in association with WNET.ORG for PBS.
