On a sunny afternoon, the Parklands family discovered a Cape cobra lounging in their toilet, startling them and highlighting the dangers of urban wildlife encounters. As homes expand into natural habitats, snakes like the Cape cobra are increasingly finding their way into neighborhoods. Quickthinking Andrew MacLeod from Snake Relocation rushed to help, showcasing the urgent need for safety and preparedness in such situations.
