A biggun from Littlehampton.

Removed this RBB from under a fishpond in Littlehampton (SA). Nice to see some big old fellas around the place. Thumper head on him.

It's hard enough being the dominant species and living in suburbia, imagine how hard it would be for these "satan spawn". He would have a few survival tricks up his sleeve (if he had sleeves).

He's a beauty IV. Are those depressed scales on the neck normal or is that where you caught him with your teeth????

Just an old warhorse I think, Steve, though I did have to ease him out from between some rocks around the fishpond. The home owner videoed the whole process, but won't put it on facebook because of the language she used when I tailed him onto her patio! I might be able to get a still off her though of his size? Over the 5 ft mark and chunky also. His head was as wide as both my thumbs side by side (but "pics, or it never happened"...right!).

Go back to that place we went for a walk. That guy I saw was just as thick and chunky (maybe even more so).
Nice one tho. Maybe the ones from Armidale are crappy small ones : )
