Deadly Green Mamba Discovered in Cargo at Aberdeen Harbour
On November 9, 2016, a potentially lethal green mamba snake was discovered at Aberdeen Harbour, aboard the cargo vessel 'UAL Bodewes'. This highly-venomous serpent raised immediate concerns, prompting the Scottish SPCA to respond swiftly. Rescue officers transported the green mamba to their facility in Drumoak; however, it was sadly euthanized as the centre was not equipped to care for such a dangerous animal. The 'UAL Bodewes' had journeyed from West Africa, making stops at several ports including Gabon, Angola, Nigeria, Cameroon, Congo-Brazzaville, and Equatorial Guinea, before arriving in Aberdeen. Its last two stops in Europe included Las Palmas and La Pallice. This incident highlights the unexpected challenges faced in maritime transport and cargo handling.
