In 2007. I assume they haven't been exterminated since then. I don't like the northern ones with their yucky brown noses :lol: The black-nosed southern ones are much nicer

its nothing like it was 10 years ago unfortunately. It would take you 5 hours to do the trip because you stopped so much....I have been a few times this season and seen the old carpet python and pink tongues, these species you would drive past as you got sick of seeing so many.....not anymore.

Unfortunately with the increase of new keepers, Mt Glorious has become a bit of a haven for lazy Brisbane people. Luckily QPWS are all over it at the moment, so hopefully that will dissuade any poachers.

slither, if you start to learn of some of the other spots around SEQ, try and keep them off the forums. All it does is increase the amount of people doing 40km/h with their high beams burning my retina's and headtorches strapped to their foreheads. Herping spots are like fishing spots - only tell those who you trust with your life.

You trust me..... don't you Jonno? :lol:

 

[Jonno from ERD]

just dont trust his driving slacker:lol: ahahha

 

[slacker]

hahah. Stewart's driving scares me. He "conserves energy" by not slowing down for corners. When someone like that comments on Jonno's driving, I feel very well fore-warned :lol:
