Parents and pet owners have been issued a warning after a venomous snake was spotted on a Welsh beach.
Grandmother Deana Brown saw an adder on the beach at Porth Neigwl near Abersoch over the bank holiday weekend, with the reptile slithering over the sand before disappearing back into the dunes, North Wales Live reports. She has since warned others heading to the beach to be vigilant as temperatures rise and the snakes emerge from hibernation.
It comes after multiple other sightings of adders along the Llŷn Peninsula, as well as an unconfirmed report of a dog being bitten by a snake at Newborough in Anglesey. Get the latest news from across Wales sent straight to your inbox for free by signing up to our newsletter.
