Table Mountain is a beautiful place in Cape Town, home to 22 different snake species like the Cape cobra and African puff adder. Hikers should walk in groups, stick to the trails, and be aware of their surroundings to stay safe. If you see a snake, stay calm and give it space—it usually won’t want to engage. If bitten, get medical help quickly, as some snakes can be very dangerous. Understanding these snakes helps us appreciate nature while keeping ourselves safe.
This event highlights the need for public awareness regarding safe interactions with snakes, and immediate medical attention is crucial. Preventative measures include not provoking snakes, wearing protective gloves, and conducting regular checks of indoor areas. Our best defense against such incidents is knowledge and awareness.
