I thought this might be a good place to put this picture a friend has given me. Some time ago he and his mum I think it was, were on Table mountain in Africa. This snake was sighted right next to them and he initiated the `ol skidaddle manuvere lol Got away from it quick smart but managed to take a picture of it disappearing into the grass. He`s always wondered whether it was dangerous or not. Obviously if you don`t know what it is, treat it as deadly anyway, he did the right thing. Can anyone ID the snake from this image? Looks like a lovely bit od orange/brown on the flank there and black spots! Shouldn`t be too difficult I wouldn`t have thought. What do you guys think?
