Lion Guardians

Over the past few months we have had 4 different snakes in our office at Lion Guardian headquarters! It’s been a herpetologist’s dream to be working here - however not so pleasant for those of us who want to get down to work, and would prefer not to be disturbed by these slippery intruders! Here is our lovely office that has recently had a series of hissing visitors!

First we had an Egyptian cobra under the desk, then a spotted bush snake fell from roof, we were then confronted by a hissing sand snake IN the printer and finally a striped snake at the door step! Here are some photos.. can you identify which is which?

Luckily we have a massive snake fan (and expert!) living just up the road at Ol Donyo Wuas lodge, who helps us out with snake identification, removal and relocation! Do you wish your office had this kind of problem?
