Indoda yase-Austrian inobufakazi bokuthi ungalokothi uhlale eduze komuntu ozibiza ngokuthi “ungumthandi wezilwane eziphilayo”
Le ndoda eneminyaka engama-65 ayikaze ibe nenkinga nomakhelwane wayo, ongumnikazi oziqhenyayo wezinyoka eziyishumi, kuze kube uMsombuluko ekuseni ngesikhathi enye yazo imlume emasendeni ngesikhathi ezikhulula endlini yakhe yangasese.
Le ndoda izwe “into eyithintayo” ngemuva nje kokuhlala phansi yenze ibhizinisi layo lasekuseni endlini yangasese, ngokusho kwesitatimende sabezindaba samaphoyisa endawo.
Usukume ngokukhulu okushesha, waphenduka amehlo akhe ahlangana nawenhlwathi eyi-albino enobude obungamamitha ayi-1,5.
Kodwa ngesikhathi ukuthuka sekudamba, uqale ukuzwa ukuqaqamba kwezinhlungu kwase kudingeka ukuba le ndoda iphuthunyiswe esibhedlela esiseduzane futhi ilashelwe “ukulimala”.
Izinhlwathi azinabo ubuthi kunalokho zibulala isitha ngokusicindezela. Le ndoda kumele ibonge ukuthi inyoka ayizange ithathe isinqumo sokukhama ingxenye yesitho sayo sangasese.
Le nyoka ekamakhelwane oneminyaka engama-24 ubudala, ohlala futhi nezinye izinyoka eziyisishiyagalolunye kanye nezibankwa eziningana – kanti futhi akahlali ngisho nomuntu ahlekisana naye.
Amaphoyisa awanaso isiqiniseko sokuthi inyoka yeqe kanjani kwi-terrarium yale ndoda, kodwa akholelwa ukuthi “kungenzeka ukuthi ingene endlini yangasese ngohlelo lokuhambisa indle”.
La maphoyisa abize uchwepheshe wendawo yezilwane uWerner Stangl ukuze asuse inyoka.
UStangl utshele iphephandaba likazwelonke i-Kronen Zeitung ukuthi ukuhlenga inyoka endlini yangasese bekungumsebenzi onzima, ngoba ubengafuni ukulimaza inyoka.
Kodwa-ke, ubuye wathi inyoka iqinise imisipha yayo ukuze imelane nokususwa endlini yangasese – okuyinto ebifana neyesisulu, obekumele siqinise imisipha yaso uma sizikhulula endlini yangasese.
Kodwa-ke, ekugcineni isisusiwe. Kanti ngemuva kokuhlanzwa, ibuyiselwe kumnikazi wayo (yize isisulu besifuna ukuthi inyoka ingahlanzwa ukuze kufundiswe umakhelwane waso isifundo).
Iziphathimandla zase-Austrian manje seziphenya umnikazi wale nsumansumane ngamacala angaba khona obudedengu, kanti iziphathimandla zezilwane zendawo kubikwa ukuthi zicabanga ukuyisusa inyoka ezandleni zakhe.
