The distribution of Naja nivea extends into which landlocked country bordering South Africa?
Answer
Lesotho
The geographic range of the Yellow Cobra covers a significant portion of the southern cone of Africa, extending beyond the borders of South Africa. While the range covers southern Namibia and southwestern Botswana, it also encompasses neighboring nations. Specifically, the species is noted to stretch into western Lesotho. This expansion into a landlocked nation further emphasizes the broad territorial span and adaptability of *Naja nivea* across diverse landscapes within Southern Africa, reinforcing the need for regional safety awareness across multiple jurisdictions.
