A ROGUE taipan causing panic at Cooktown, north of Cairns, for many years has finally been bagged when it was spotted at a children's playground on the town's waterfront. cairns.com.au |

I'm beginning to think that Cairns people are taking a shining to reptiles - there's always stories on them in the paper (as though people have never seen a croc or a scrubby before).
Even the other night a teacher friend of mine called me up and said there's a 1 - 2m coastal on the road and he didn't want it to get run over and wanted to know if I'd pick it up and move it for him.
But by time we'd finished the phone call it had moved and was well off the road.
But that wasn't before he had to stop a bloke in his ute and tell him to be careful there's a snake on the road up ahead - apparently the bloke in the ute asked - "Do you want me to run it over for you?" And my friend just rolled his eyes and said "No, I want you to go around it and drive carefully thank you..."
Which must have worked!
The taipan story here seems to be a good one - still a little bit of fear to make it more readable...

Good to see no one killed it saying it was a "deadly attack" where the evil reptile was hunting kids in teh park for the last few years.

Thats no Keelback, poor Green tree Snake.
(at least it doesn't look like a Keelback to me?)
