O.k., not snakes on a plane. Snakes in our house. Yes, it has already happened. I hadn’t planned on posting today, but then this happened last night
:
Yes, on top of our toilet paper roller (sigh of relief because it is broken and we haven’t been using it!) we found that beaut. Yep, another baby green mamba. I know it doesn’t look like much, but they are super dangerous. I wish we had documentation of what followed. Our guards will kill snakes for 100LD (about $1.50 USD) so we called Joseph over and asked him to kill it for us. After locating the snake Joseph whacked at him with a stick as the snake flipped and twirled around.
As our friend Patti said- “I’m scared for Joseph, but not scared enough to help.”
Finally the snake gave up the ghost! Joseph is my new hero. Really. Forever. I’m making an “I heart Joseph” t-shirt.
oh my goodness!!! That is soo scary!!!
ReplyDeleteAwwww, it's just little Denny. (Dendroaspis viridis)
ReplyDeleteUmm, so I don't handle snakes well venomous or not. You (and Joseph) are braver than I. I just googled these bad boys....stay safe!
ReplyDeleteOh my WORD! I would flip out if I saw this anywhere near me, much less in my home. You guys are brave! We love you! Stay safe!!!
