🐍 WELLINGTON — KNOW YOUR LOCAL SNAKES!

From the vineyards and farms to the surrounding mountains and fynbos, snakes are part of the natural landscape around Wellington. But how well do you know the species in your area, and would you know what to do if you came across one?

Join the African Snakebite Institute in at Val Du Charron in Wellington on 17 October for our Level 1: Snake Awareness, First Aid for Snakebite & Venomous Snake Handling course!

What can you expect? A day packed with useful knowledge, covering snake identification, behaviour, what to do during an encounter, common myths and misconceptions, and the correct response to a snakebite emergency.

You’ll also gain practical experience in the safe capture and relocation of venomous snakes, learning how to use the appropriate equipment and follow correct handling procedures under expert supervision.

Whether you’re passionate about snakes, work outdoors, or simply want to feel more confident when you encounter one, this course will help you build your knowledge and confidence.

📍 Wellington | 17 October

Nope. Not plastic. Not even close. 💪🐍 The ASI Eli

Nope. Not plastic. Not even close. 💪🐍

The ASI Elite Snake Tong is manufactured from a precision-engineered nylon-glass composite — a super-strong, high-performance material designed to deliver exceptional strength and durability without the extra weight of traditional aluminium tongs.

This is serious engineering, not plastic!

The ASI Elite represents the first major redesign of a product that has remained virtually unchanged for over 60 years. The result? A new generation of snake handling equipment that combines innovative materials with practical performance.

Lighter. Stronger. Smarter.

Designed for professionals who demand strength, reliability and control, the ASI Elite Snake Tong is redefining what's possible in snake handling equipment.

Eastern Green Mamba (Dendroaspis angusticeps) The

Eastern Green Mamba (Dendroaspis angusticeps)

The Green Mamba is a bright green snake that inhabits coastal forests and dense montane forests. It can also be found in plantations, including mango orchards and areas with certain nut-bearing trees. Due to its appearance, it is often mistaken for harmless green snakes of the genus Philothamnus or the Green Boomslang.

This species spends most of its life among dense vegetation, where it actively hunts during the day, feeding on tree-dwelling mammals and birds. Although primarily arboreal, it may occasionally descend to the ground to bask or move between trees. Unfortunately, Green Mambas are sometimes found as roadkill.

The Green Mamba possesses potent neurotoxic venom, which can also cause local swelling. Although effective antivenom is available, bites are relatively uncommon due to the snake’s shy and elusive nature. Dogs are particularly vulnerable, as they may be bitten when attempting to attack or kill these snakes, often with fatal consequences.

A young African Rock Python (Python sebae) photographed at Watamu Snake Farm, Kenya. Other than occurring in different regions, the African Rock Python can be distinguished from the Southern African Python (Python natalensis) in that the scales on the head of the African Rock Python are large and organised as opposed to the small scattered scales on the head of the Southern African Python.

If we look at the latest South African Reptile Con

If we look at the latest South African Reptile Conservation Assessment, a number of our snakes are listed as threatened and the listed threats include habitat degradation, habitat loss, pollution and poaching. Yet road kills are seldom mentioned and probably because little can be done about it. Our estimation is that tens of thousands of snakes are killed on roads in Southern Africa in a single summer's night. The dead snake in this photograph is a Mole Snake.
