It’s cold and rainy and I’d like to get into my office but I think I might just politely wait for the nice, slow moving, extremely deadly snake to do whatever the hell it wants…

It's only recently that I have learnt that the male platypus has venomous spurs on its hind legs. Apparently the pain that these spurs can inflict on a human is excruciating, long lasting, and resistant to common analgesics .
I feel disillusioned, as I had never thought of the platypus as a dangerous animal.
This article informed me of more characteristics that make the platypus such an extraordinary creature.

Snakes from Above
SNAKES FROM ABOVE !
I was working and living at Badplaas Mechanical Services, the workshop was about 4km
from that sorry excuse of a town. Nice view of the mountain and grasslands all around
me, I was content. My room was powered from a couple of batteries and an inverter, as
Eskom was broken.
Rigged above my bed was an LED light, because I do love to read at night. The building
was not in a good state of repair and between the wall and the ceiling were large gaps,
this did not bother me much, until one night.
I was sitting on my bed playing a computer game, very focused on it. Something brushed
against my shoulder, thinking it was one of the huge moths they have there I absently
slapped it away. Instant pain in my left eye! Caught only a glimpse of the Mozambique
Spitting Cobra, I had just slapped, slithering under the bed. The pain was intense; I
stumbled to the bathroom and washed out my eyes.
By now the left eye was totally useless, the right not much better, as a miniscule about
of venom had gotten in that eye too. My nose was a runny mess, and as I said, the pain
was incredible. There was no way I could catch that damn snake in my condition.
Fortunately I had met the resident snake catcher, Geoff. Not having his number I call my
friend Nick, owner of the workshop, and told him to get him here, quickly!
Soon the whole workshop was full of people; Geoff did his thing and caught the rather
large snake. The people could not believe that I thought this whole situation was
hilarious; I mean who the hell other than The Mexican Horse Thief has deadly snakes
falling on their head while they are in bed, FFS? The snake had come out of the ceiling
and slithered along the light’s cord, falling and landing right on top of me. I took some
Grandpa Headache Powders, and chased everyone away, after thanking Geoff, of course.
A bad, bad, painful night was had. The next day, the light hurt my eye; I put a patch on it.
Geoff arrived with the snake and we took it into the bush next to the river and let her go.
I took one photo, not a good one at all, only excuse is I was still suffering from a lot of
pain at the time. The patch came off the next day, but my vision was still blurred. For
about six months after that if I was tired and did not get enough sleep my left eye would
go red and weep.
Lesson learned? DO NOT slap a Mozambique Spitting Cobra.
My Guardian Angel? Hard at work, if that snake had bitten rather than spat, even my
hand, I do not think I would have made the hour’s drive to the hospital. Face, neck or
head bite? Would have been dead in an hour or less.
