Yeah it is but the tiger was my favourite the photo does no justice to the vividness of the colours

 

[Hooglabah]

love the death adder

 

[Elapidae1]

Yeah it's the first death adder I have seen in the flesh, there heads are much smaller than I thought, I guess this is because most pics focus on the head. There was also a Mulga but unfortunately no pics

Yeah they are getting popular, but the course I did was for catch and release, not to keep them, my wife says I'm lucky to have the pythons, even though she is quite fond of them. It is very hard to get licenses to keep venomous in WA. I believe there is only around a dozen licensed ven keepers over here
