One month after he was placed in an induced coma following a snake bite, South African YouTuber, Graham ‘Dingo’ Dinkelman, has passed away.
In a statement, 44-year-old Dinkelman’s wife Kirsty Dinkelman, said her husband was bitten by a green mamba at home in September.
“Tragically, an allergy to snake venom resulted in anaphylactic shock,” the family said.
“While Dingo was renowned for his involvement with snakes and other reptiles, his compassion extended to all creatures. There was a special place in his heart for African mammals, his favourites being elephants, rhinos and lions, as well as our own giraffe, Elliot. But it was truly his love for his family that was always behind his purpose, drive, and passion,” she said.
