Durban - A 2.47m female black mamba, rescued from Durban's Addington Beach earlier this week, has been given a clean bill of health and is expected to be released very soon.
SAAMBR vet, Dr Francois Lampen, said when the snake was admitted to uShaka Sea World, she initially showed signs of stress but was in an overall good condition. “Thankfully, her blood results do not indicate that there is an infection present and we were not able to detect any further abnormalities on the x-rays," Lampen said.
