Two meter black mamba captured

BUFFELSDRAAI – A two metre Black Mamba was captured in the ceiling of a conference centre in Buffelsdraai on Friday morning.

Employees of the Buffelsdraai Landfill contacted Reaction Unit South Africa after a construction employee noticed the snake. Reaction Officer Nathi Ndaba was dispatched and on arrival removed several asbestos roof sheetings with the assistance from construction employees.

The RUSA Member thereafter captured and removed the reptile. Residents must be aware of snakes seeking warmth during the current Autumn season. Please be alert and contact your nearest centre in your area to come and remove the reptile.
