UMzantsi Afrika likhaya leentlobo ngeentlobo zeenyoka, uninzi lwazo lufumaneka kwingingqi yeNtshona Koloni apho iNtabeni yeTafile ikhona. Nantsi imizekelo embalwa ephambili yezinye zezona ntlobo zixhaphakileyo kunye/okanye eziphawulekayo zeenyoka ezifumaneka kweli lizwe:
- Inyoka evuzayo (Amasuntswana eramming) – enkulu, Inyoka enobuhlungu efumaneka kwiindawo ezininzi kumazantsi eAfrika, kubandakanya eNtshona Koloni. Iinyoka ezirhubuluzayo zinoxanduva lokufa ngokulunywa ziinyoka kulo mmandla.
- Boomslang (Dispholidus typus) – inyoka enobuhlungu obukhulu eyaziwa ngokuba nombala oluhlaza oqaqambileyo kunye namehlo amakhulu. IiBoomslang zifumaneka kwiindawo ngeendawo zokuhlala kuwo wonke amazantsi eAfrika, kubandakanya eNtshona Koloni.
- Inyoka yaseKapa (Ewe, hayi) – uhlobo olunobuhlungu obukhulu bephimpi elifumaneka kuninzi lwamazantsi eAfrika, kubandakanya eNtshona Koloni. Iiphimpimpi zaseKapa zaziwa ngokwazo “isigqubuthelo” ukubonisa kwaye kunokuba yingozi kakhulu ebantwini.
- Rinkhals (Hemachatus haemachatus) – uhlobo olunobuhlungu obuphezulu bephimpimpi efumaneka kuninzi lwamazantsi eAfrika, kubandakanya eNtshona Koloni. IiRinkhals ziyaziwa ngokukwazi ukutshiza ubuthi emehlweni abahlaseli babo, kubangela ubumfama bexeshana.
- I-adder yeBerg (Amasuntswana atropos) – encinci, Inyoka enobuhlungu efumaneka kwimimandla yeentaba eNtshona Koloni nakwezinye iindawo ezisemazantsi eAfrika. Iinyoka zeBerg zaziwa ngombala wazo ofihlakeleyo, okubanceda ukuba badibane nendawo abangqongileyo.
- Intonga yegusha ye-rhombic (Psammophylax rhombus) – inyoka engenabuhlungu efumaneka kuwo wonke amazantsi eAfrika, kubandakanya eNtshona Koloni. Rhombic skaapstekers zincinci kwaye azinabungozi, kodwa basoloko bephazamana neenyoka ezinobuhlungu ngenxa yenkangeleko yazo efanayo.
Le yimizekelo nje embalwa ephucukileyo yeentlobo ezininzi ezahlukeneyo zeenyoka ezifumaneka eMzantsi Afrika. Nangona iinyoka zinokuba ngumthombo woloyiko kubantu abaninzi, ziyinxalenye ebalulekileyo ye-ikhosistim yendalo kwaye zisebenza njengezilwanyana ezizingelayo kunye neentlobo zamaxhoba kwiindawo ezininzi ze-ecosystem..
