Bump - Just after some more info on these guys. Moreso, what they eat, habits, etc...

I've seen them catching bats at 'bat cleft' near Rockhampton

 

[Oxyuranus microlepid]

brown tree snake
mildly-venomous but not dangerous

id have to agree, its venomous but not so much that it will kill you, just hurt for a while...

on the + side, theyre cute!

I got another one this morning. He was about a meter and tagged me twice on the back of the hand. No pain, just a little blood. They tend to chew rather than bite which is interesting. They have quite a flexible mouth too.

These guys have their fangs in the rear of their mouths [as opposed to the front like most elapids] hence the chewing to get the prey item [your finger] to the back of the mouth for envenomation! don't let em!
