Corn\u00e9 Uys kan nie sonder die natuur nie, hulle loop saam soos vinkel en koljander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Corn\u00e9 vertel hy het vandat hy kan onthou Steve Irwin-programme gekyk, en tot vandag toe kan hy nie genoeg kry van di\u00e9 Australiese natuurman nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDie natuur is my lewe; ek kan myself nie indink sonder om deur diere omring te wees nie, veral nie wilde diere nie,\u201d vertel hy. \u201cEk kan oor en oor na die programme oor Steve Irwin kyk.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sy belangstelling om slange te vang en dan te verplaas, kom ook van jongs af, en hy geniet dit om \u2013 soos hy dit stel \u2013 die onskuldige diere veilig in hul eie omgewing vry te laat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEk het baie geleer. Ek het geleer jy moet respek vir die natuur h\u00ea en dan sal die natuur respek vir jou h\u00ea,\u201d vertel Corn\u00e9. Verder het hy ook geleer elke liewe dier, hoe klein ook al, vervul \u2019n belangrike rol in die ekostelsel. \u201cAlles speel \u2019n belangrike rol. Slange help byvoorbeeld om muis- en paddaplae te beheer. Bye het hul eie doel, sowel as vo\u00ebls, vlermuise en selfs die kleinste insek. Alles is geskep vir \u2019n doel en dit is ons plig om die natuur verantwoordelik te bestuur sodat alles in die ekostelsel kan pas,\u201d verduidelik hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Corn\u00e9 is nog nooit deur enige slang gepik nie, maar hy vertel hy was onlangs amper die slagoffer van \u2019n luislang. \u201cDit was in Limpopo waar ek \u2019n noue ontkoming gehad het toe ek \u2019n luislang van naderby leer ken het. Dit is \u2019n merkwaardige dier met die wonderlikste eienskappe. Gelukkig het ek net-net uit die \u2018kloue\u2019 van di\u00e9 mooi reptiel ontsnap.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Op sy Facebook-blad kan jy sien hoe hy slange in en rondom Hermanus vang en dan weer in die veld vrylaat, maar dit was sy ontmoeting met die pofadder wat hy in Vermont gevang het, wat die aandag van baie Facebook-gebruikers aangegryp het. \u201cEk het al baie slange in my lewe gevang, maar hierdie massiewe pofadder in Vermont het my net weer laat besef ons moet die natuur respekteer,\u201d vertel di\u00e9 oudleerder van Ho\u00ebrskool Hermanus. \u201cEk wil niks anders in die lewe doen as om slange te vang en hulle dan veilig te verplaas nie,\u201d s\u00ea hy passievol. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hy is Hermanus se eie Steve Irwin.
