Because of the danger posed by the black mamba, the pupils were kept away from class.

Herpetologists from Crocworld Conservation Centre in Scottburgh together with police were called out to rescue the school’s newest classmate but the snake’s chosen hiding spot made for a challenging rescue, resulting in success three days later.

“The snake was hiding in the actual brickwork near the ceiling, inside the wall. It would be spotted but we couldn’t find the hole it was getting in through. On Friday, the school staff saw it and were able to keep an eye on it while we were called to attend,” said Crocworld conservation manager Martin Rodrigues.

They should indeed pay more cognizance to black snakes. The teenage pregnancy rate in schools disgusting.

The reason I'm afraid to stay in Kzn permanently. Simply because that guy from channel 182 said'almost every single house in Kzn got the snake but they are not aware of it'... Iyoo haai I'm afraid of the snakes. God bless KZN residents.
