I didnt notice anyone address the mamba issue, so Ill let you know. Mambas are front fanged elapids, just like cobras. Rear fanged snakes are colubrids, and for the most part, are unevolved as far as venom delivery and potency. Of coarse, as with every rule, there are exceptions; boomslangs have rather large rear fangs and a potent venom.
