Howdy all!

Here is an Eastern Brown I caught at Nudgee Beach a suburb of Brisbane. Apparently it swam in from the ocean which I guess explains why it was a little puffed and didn't too many goes at me. This was Wednesday last week, a real little winter surprise!

Whilst I am here I will introduce myself. I am David from Snake Catchers :: Snake Removal Services a national contact list for licensed snake catchers. If you are licensed, good with snakes, people and the odd terrified pet then please feel free to contact me or just sign up at Snake Catchers :: Services

As mentioned please make sure you are licensed, hold a current first aid cert and are good with snakes and people (even those who are scared of Green Tree Snakes). Even if you only relocate snakes part time and out of hours, much like I do, you can be a part of this list. The list allows you to remove your contact details at the touch of a button from your phone or pc. Typically after that there are no more calls and you can reclaim the night as your own.

If you have any questions please feel free to msg me.

Cheers,
David

This redbelly was caught in Langwarrin today, unfortunatly it seems to have been attacked by a bird or a cat.

What a beautiful little guy/gal(one of the few places I dont get looked at strangely for thinking so lol)the colour underneath seems very bright in comparison to the ones I see up here? not that I see many ..... shame about the injuries
Kind regards

Not exactly a relocation as I found this little guy at work. Another beautiful North Queensland EB, completely calm and non aggressive, settled easily on the hook and to prove the point if one comes towards you just STAND STILL.

 

[Snake Catcher Victoria]

Very nice Firepac, I think they know when you are not scared of them and
they do tend to be more relaxed.
Ive watched some snake catchers tail them and shake them around to stop
them coming up on themselves and this action seems to make them more narky I think.
Slow and steady wins the race as a general rule.
Some snakes are just more laid back than others to, which helps.

A callout to a tigersnake, little bugger did not want to play nice.

This copperhead from today also played a bit hard to get.

And last week this guy terrorised the homeowners by soaking up some sun by the pool.

Some more nice video's Baz, thanks for sharing. What was the outcome for that little RBB with the cat bite?

 

[Snake Catcher Victoria]

The redbelly didnt make it Richard.
It was damaged internally and died.

Here is a few release pics though.

Have you got a chance to use your new bags yet?

Nice Tigers!

I have a large EB in my sights ATM! He's hanging out under a slab at an old Dairy, so it's just a matter of time

Pics to follow, hopefully.

:cry: I was thinking how cute it was, too.

 

[imported_Varanus]

I haven't had much success with cat attacks, either (unless it's me atttacking the cat)! Always seems to be some secondary infection involved that leads to the snakes demise.
