Re: Backyard wildlife
First encounter for this season,...
Two weeks ago, found the shed skin of
a huge snake, a poisonous one!!
Today encountered a rather skinny rinkie,
agile as all hell,.. managed to capture and
relocate,..shoie, it seemed rather attached
and kept coming toward us!! Climbed into the
underside of the car, chassis..
Heh,.. H.e

What was the big snake?

Re: Backyard wildlife
Had a big spitting cobra at school Monday, in front of the office entrance! We thought it was small, but when one of the kids, a trained snake catcher, eventually got it out it was over 1.5 metres!

Re: Backyard wildlife
Rinkhals Mel.
Fact is these animals send plenty warning signals when
encountered. Being calm in their immediate environment
a big factor.
Hard to adjust too with immediate bowel movement taking
place!!!
The kid obviously displaying tons of calmness, I bet!!!Richprins wrote:Had a big spitting cobra
