As beautiful as they are deadly! One of the most dangerous animals on our great Australian lands. It is common knowledge on the Coast to understand the environment in order to respect the ecosystem. A very common predator that definitely keeps all locals on their toes is a red belly black snake.

Cool and calm until taunted so if you come in close contact don’t move and let them wonder on their way, if you are far away enough back off slightly and go the nearest toilet to change your undies.

They seem to love the coast just as much for all the same perks. The ever ending hinterlands, the sub tropical climate surroundings - They live lavishly.

Many encounters with these creatures have occurred in my family. And each experience is funnier than the next. Beautiful creatures with high status in the food chain.
