This was the case for a visitor to a golf course at Leopard Creek, just outside Kruger National Park’s Malelane Gate recently.The video was uploaded by LatestSightings on YouTube.  It’s what can be described as a ‘double bogey’.  Cara, who filmed the incident was on the 14th hole which was occupied by the serpents.

“I drove up a small rise and saw movement out of the corner of my eye. At first glance, I thought it was a spitting cobra that had its hood up, but after a closer inspection, I then saw it was actually two mambas. I quickly flagged the other two players in my four ball to slow down.”

Cara continued: “It was amazing to watch and seemed to go on for ages. We debated about carrying on playing the hole, but after a little while longer, we decided to drive past them at a wide berth and go to the next hole.”

The video comes weeks after a large python was spotted on a golf course in Zimbali.
