Man in police custody dies after venomous snake bite in Free State

Bush vipers, swamp vipers, diamondback rattlesnakes, Chinese spitting cobras, yellow anacondas, boomslang – the list went on and on. There was also a baby Nile crocodile, a savannah monitor lizard, seven green iguanas, three meerkats , two ferrets and a container of tarantulas.South Africans need to be in the know if we want to create a prosperous future. News24 has kept the country informed for 25 years, and we're about to enter a new chapter of fearless journalism.
