    Tiny Snake

    Dot sent this e-mail today,

    Subject: READ FIRST: SNAKE -- A big Aussie Snake
    Photos of a
    snake caught on an electric fence just next to Hope Island on the Gold Coast
    Some tourists on holidays came across the snake caught in an

    electric fence, being continually shocked, and getting very
    angry!
    The group wondering what to do, decide to divert the current, cut the wire AND let the snake go! (As you should do).
    When the property
    owner found out he went ballistic, besides being upset about his fence,the snake had been eating lambs in the area, and he'd been trying to track it for ages. He did not appreciate the help!
    Australians are used
    to a big snake or two, but wait till you see this old fella!

    It is so obviously unlike anything we get in this country, just look at the size of it, a Scrubbie would be a tenth of it's girth. I wonder what it will be next time it gets posted ? LOL.
