BABOONS – leave the area if you hear or see them, specially if you have a dog with you. They sometimes snatch food and males and nursing mothers can be dangerous. FIRE – never make a fire except at clearly designated braai areas. SNAKES – there are two dangerous species in the valley, Cape cobras and puff adders, though they are only aggressive when startled or threatened. Stand still if you see one until it slides away. Do not go anywhere near a puff adder which doesn’t move. SUNSTROKE – if someone’s temperature rises suddenly, call or send for help, protect them from the sun, loosen clothing, sponge them down and give sips of water. TICKS – inspect socks, trousers, legs and any clothing that may have brushed the vegetation for small ticks at the end of your walk and brush them off.
