Yes, I saw a death adder yesterday (well the tale and my identification is pretty lax at the best of times - but the girl i was with swears black and blue it was a deathy...). Plus today, sadly, a deceased Macleay's Water snake. Was very sad.

Afterall they have survived this long! In most cases they're hard to see in tanks at a zoo when you think they have empty tanks... So imagine in the wild!
I think I have been lucky with snake spotting in Cairns because of the climate. But I have gone out at night with torches looking for scrubbies and found them, then other nights not even found a cane toad! It all seems random! But the one thing I know, is they hear (or smell/taste) us coming long before we see them going!

I was in the lift at woolies 2 days ago and this woman was going on about this snake she has living in a hole near her porch. personally I wouldn't have been worried but for the snakes sake I told her to look up www.happyreptile.com.au and ring Brad. I didn't know if he would get it but he would atleast be able to point her n the direction of someone who did
