Puff Adder removed from a property in Stellenbosch.

“The Puff Adder is widespread over much of southern Africa and further north into Africa. It is a heavy-bodied snake that relies on its excellent camouflage and is reluctant to move. Much of its life is spent in camouflage mode and recent research has shown that when hiding, the Puff Adder will not hiss or strike when approached, as this would give away its presence.

It is an ambush hunter that will coil up into a striking position and await its prey. This can last several days or even weeks. Toads are lured closer with flicking of the tongue. Puff Adder venom is potently cytotoxic, causing severe pain, swelling, blistering and in many cases severe tissue damage. Polyvalent antivenom is effective.” ~ ASI

A big thank you to Dr Brugman from Stellenbosch Animal Hospital for helping me treat this Puff Adder that was unfortunately struck by a w**d leater.

Also, a big thank you to Dr Oosthuizen for his assistance and support. Your willingness to help these animals is greatly appreciated!
