Recently, Plettenberg Bay in South Africa had an unusual spectacle on its serene shore when two yellowbellied sea snakes, highly venomous creatures with no antivenom available, were marooned on the beach by the tumultuous ocean. While it may be tempting to help, it is best to maintain a safe distance and contact a local expert or stranding network for assistance. However, the local experts were successful in rescuing the sea snakes, and this occurrence presents an opportunity for environmental awareness and appreciation of the interconnectedness of different species in the dynamic world.
