Snakes!

Interesting but gives me the creeps. I hate snakes. ALL of them. Those beady unblinking eyes staring at me just begging to be totally annihilated--which I will do at every opportunity. Another reason I schedule my RSA hunts in April. Too cold for snakes.

Yeah, that’s a cottonmouth.
 
A 4,3 m Black Mamba, Africa's most venomous snake!
At that length its about 18-20 years old!

Be careful out there....

last week in the Limpopo with my friends at Warthog Safaris---this is outside the door of one of the ph's rooms...fell off the wall...near the ph...it was vanquished!
 
and from somewhere else in the Limpopo...this is before the meal...rock python!

The outfitter/ph says green mamba. Either way—dead snake now.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
