somehow in its last stand the red bellie(quite a large one) tagged both the dogs
before being ripped in half by one of them.
wierd it must of been in one run been attacked bitten that dog then retreated into the next dog run
and bit that dog before being finished off.this was at maralya out near pitt town
sometime later they where discovered and taken to the animal referal hospital at baulkham hills.
the only symptom they mentioned to me was passing blood
they get alot of snake bites at the ARH i go there sometimes to identify snakes brought in
or transporting wildlife to specialist veterinary care |

Yes because its the governments fault that we moved into the snakes territory and someone's introduced specie got in the way of this poor snake.
Now I must remember to send them my dry cleaning bill for when the bird shat on my shirt.
