M’FEZISnake Awareness
- A custom Snake awareness and handling course as per the company’s requirements and location
- A short lecture about snakes and their characteristics
The Snake Awareness and Handling Course:
Each province and area carries many different snake species and sub species. We develop a course that will sought your situation and talk about the specific snakes in your region.
The first part of this course is theory based to help identify which snakes are dangerous, what type of venoms these snakes possess and what emergency protocols should be followed. Other aspects covered in the course include why you would come into contact and what to do to avoid contact. This is usually about six hours long including tea and lunch breaks. A short written exam will be done at the end of the session.
The second part is the handling section. This is where the participants will have the opportunity to come into “contact” with the snakes under the strict guidance and supervision of the professional snake handler. There will be no physical contact with the snakes at all, and the participants will be taught how to safely remove the snake from the area with specialised equipment to keep them away from the snake. Depending on numbers the handling section should not take more than an hour and a half. The snakes used in the handling section would be sourced from your specific area with all relevant permits in place.
The Lecture:
This is a short presentation intended to give a brief coverage about snakes and their characteristics. It covers the different species found in the area with a focus on the venomous. It is designed to give an insight and there will be some snakes on display to help describe attributes of such snakes attributes. Lectures are usually about an hour and a half duration.
