22.01.2022 You won't believe what this snake had for breakfast. It was removed from under the homestead at Parry Creek Farm in the east Kimberley. Then something a bit gro...ss and very extraordinary happened. : Amanda Jongedyk

22.01.2022 Moral of the story: don’t ever limit a snake’s escape route! Great dog/snake interaction, sorry about the video quality, I just recorded the screen from my phon...e. Was very comforting to watch the footage and see there was no contact (I called my vet anyway). I have a snake living under my front deck. Thought it was a RBB, but now thinking possibly Eastern Small Eyed. I’ve been hearing him in the bushes at the front of the house when I go past, but he’s never been seen until last month when my brother was visiting. Then again yesterday, when he was sunning himself half out of the deck, just below my dog’s bed (caught by surprise because a visitor approached from the lawn and not out the door). He’s a chilled old Mastiff, spoilt inside dog, but sunbakes out there in the morning. Anyway... after the sighting yesterday my husband and our farm manager had the bright idea to cover all of the holes at the front side of the deck with turf and bricks, to force the snake to go to the far end of the deck to get back under (left of the first photo). I objected, saying it was safest for the snake and the dog if he could just always scoot back under the deck whenever he hears our vibrations as we walk out the front door (I’m assuming that’s what happens as we’ve never encountered him before, but based on his little worn tracks he’s in and out a lot). Buddy was having lunch, I looked out the door to see if he’d finished, and saw him sniffing the snake as it came up on to the deck. The poor snake was terrified, and just wanted to nope the hell out of there back to his safety under the deck and was trying to find a way to get there. When I saw it I started screaming, Buddy! Leave it! Get away! A bit hysterically I stopped recording the footage and he walked away to the left. I’m not particularly comfortable having the snake there, but as he lives under the deck there’s nothing I can do about it. Jayden (snake catcher from Mid North Coast) came last month when we saw the snake, and said he will never catch him unless we can keep him out in the open. That will never happen. And I’m not prepared to block off the deck and trap the snake inside to die. Needless to say, I’ve removed all of the hole coverings so the poor shy little guy can just go back to being safe. Sorry it’s so wordy, just wanted to give full background in case anyone has any solution suggestions that I’m missing. See more

12.01.2022 Snakes are not the smartest creatures, this Scrub Python decided a dog blanket would make a good meal and managed to swallow most of it before it was noticed and Kylee managed to extract it.

10.01.2022 Follow a giant anaconda as it hunts the rivers of the Pantanal for its next meal.

07.01.2022 I share this for one single reason snakes will fight to live through the most heinous of injuries so please please don't try to hurt them and if a accident has occurred please call for help we do rescue them and at least save them from a deplorable death. Pets can inflict puncture wounds through to lungs and infections result in some cases they can take months to die .... No matter how you hate them they don't deserve this!

01.01.2022 Hiya everyone, Just wanting to share this greatly informative documentary, created by Ross McGibbon. I promised myself I’d wait to watch it on my birthday, it’s... been a three month wait, but it is so very worth it! Thanks Ross, for some great information!
