Free handling this and free handling that, why don't you just shut the f**k up and eat my free handling ass ✨️

It's one of the best-looking boomslangs to date!
This overfed monster was caught by Will de Meyer, and I had the chance to interact with it before release.
It wasn't too pleased with any handling, so we kept it very short, but we got some excellent shots of her!

Another absolutely massive cobra caught and released today.
I guess all these huge cape cobras this season make up for how few there were last year🤪

You constantly talk s**t behind everyone's back but have the nerve to say you have respect and were raised right? Respectfully, shut the f**k up 🫶
Respect is earned not given freely. You don't deserve anything from me, especially after attacking my family and friends' family.

But anyway, last post about degenerates. Here's 3 Cape cobras that were caught on the same day. The reddish brown one laid eggs recently, and the duller speckled one unfortunately regurgitated 4 meals during the capture but he had 4 western cape leopard toads inside of him and one of them actually managed to survive and was released back where the snake was found.

All wild caught on the same day and released shortly after.

This is probably the biggest boomslang I've ever seen!
We measured her, and she was just shy of 2m long!
For reference in the first photo, I am about 206cm long, and she is almost as long as me!

This girl was caught in western cape and shortly released after a day holding period as she had a few broken ribs or spine. Which makes you wonder why there is almost never any boomslang captures from people who solely use tongs👻 I have now caught about three boomslangs with very similar injuries to this girl and I whole heartedly suspect it's from someone using tongs in an incorrect way as there is no external injuries which would negate the thought of an animal or person trying to kill the snake.

But anyway, she's a stunning animal and has full mobility of the lower portion of her body, so she was released safely back into the wild where she belongs!

"You're an idiot."
"Who would ever free handle a mamba?"
"It's not if but when."
"Hope he died."
And a whole lot more 🤣
Thank you for your enlightening knowledge and expertise around handling you absolute degenerates. Had a very fun time getting all the handling n***s off my page. Now, please stay gone. If you don't like what I do, I do not care. Just take your negativity elsewhere, I'm sure someone wants to hear your s**tty opinions it's just not me 🏃‍♂️
