Dog bitten to death
Entire North Sea town in fear of poisonous snake
The report of an alleged sighting of a venomous African tree snake in Braderup is currently causing unrest. A dog was bitten and died. It cannot be ruled out that a snake bite could be the cause.
A poisonous snake is said to be on the loose in a village near Niebüll. It could be a boomslang - an African snake that is mainly active during the day and prefers to stay in trees or bushes.
However, when asked by NDR, a spokeswoman for the Südtondern office explained that no such specimen had been sighted in Braderup. However, the town of Braderup (Nordfriesland district) warned of the alleged sighting on Facebook (see post below) and called on the population to take good care of children and animals.
In Oeversee, sniffer dogs picked up the scent of the tree snake back in June. Specially trained snake-skin sniffer dogs were trained for this.
In July, experts then placed six traps in the surrounding trees, also using snakeskin as bait.
Despite this, the animal has not yet been caught. The area where the snake is said to be located is around 600 to 700 meters away from inhabited areas, according to NDR.
