Snake rescuer Nick Evans makes yet another harrowing rescue
Briefly News previously reported on snake rescuer Nick Evans of Durban who made yet another daring rescue at a Durban home. He shared three photos of the harrowing rescue to his Facebook page and Saffas have praised his bravery.
Evans wrote on Facebook that he was called out by Dr Rowan Leeming to his home in Hluhluwe iMfolozi Park after a black mamba was discovered in his roof. Evans had a difficult time getting to the snake, which was hiding out in the hot ceiling.
Dr Leeming watched the whole scene unfold:
Nick had to leopard crawl, on a beam, to find it. He spotted it in a small passageway, hiding under some fallen thatch. It had nowhere to go. He skillfully and safely managed to capture it.”
