24.01.2022 May not seem snake related, but it will when I explain. Left my boots out while on break. Got back to work, got changed, went out the front and slipped my right boot on no worries. Slipped my left boot on and my toes came up against something soft. Ripped my boot off pretty quick to find this frog living in there. Could have been a snake though. Check your shoes and boots if they have been outside for a while, you just never know what's in them.

24.01.2022 Gday all. The weather is starting to improve now that we are getting a few good runs of warm days, so we may start to see a few snakes come out soon. Be alert, and if I can help I will.

I shall be around until Monday night.

04.01.2022 First snake for the season. A nice 1mt tiger snake at work near Ravensthorpe.

03.01.2022 MYTH BUSTED Australian snakes are more aggressive during breeding season And, the 3 most potentially dangerous snakes in Western Australia. During breeding s...eason, some species of snakes engage in male to male combat to compete for the breeding rights of a nearby female. Males will "wrestle" each other, in what is sometimes confused with mating behavior, to determine who is stronger. Following a battle, the weaker male is forced to retreat and the victor wins the right to mate with a nearby female. While this behavior may appear aggressive towards their rival, there is no scientific evidence that male snakes show more aggression towards people during this period. I offer the following information to explain why some people believe snakes become more aggressive in breeding season. Following brumation (a dormancy/ inactive period through the cooler months of the year), the activity level of snakes increases dramatically, peaking in spring and summer. Warmer weather triggers snakes to mobilise in search of food and a mate. The most commonly encountered snakes during this period are males with only one thing on their mind - mating. Because males range over large areas in search of females, it causes male snakes to instinctually follow the scent of females, often blindly into residential areas. This is where increased levels of snake/ human conflict can arise. When a snake encounters a large human or domestic pet (the family dog for example) in close proximity, they can react defensively to protect themselves. This behavior has nothing to do with snakes being ‘more aggressive during breeding season,’ they simply come into contact with humans and domestic animals more often during this period and will defend their personal safety when necessary, just as they would any other time of year. In summary, it is the increased number of encounters that leads to more conflict with snakes in breeding season, not increased levels of aggression in male snakes.
