The guys are filmed as they try to untie the bag which carried a snake and one of them is seen very sacred to untie the bag and even fell on the ground. The group wrote on social media:

“Hendrik Hanekom from Zeerust contacted us yesterday about rescuing this large lady that he found on his farm and was a little concerned that she would fancy one or two of his lambs. But with him living just a short distance from a 4000-hectare nature reserve on the property of a mine it was decided the best thing was for him to release her close to her territory. #Conservationmindedfarming.”

In a lengthy Facebook post, he details how he caught the snakes and why this experience is so intriguing to him. In one part of the post, he says:

"Four vine snakes! Incredible! We could not believe it. Although, we were now scanning for more, pushing our luck! No more was seen, though, sadly. We presumed it was three males after a female. However, it turns out that it's two males and two females. They had to be together for mating. The homeowners did describe male combat- two snakes were wrapped around each other as they climbed, then they'd fall. That sounds like combat."
