I was looking though an old herp book of mine by Peter Mirtschin and Rickard Davis 1986 edition and was admiring the Albino Tiger and was wondering, are there many Albino Elapids in private collections. I have managed to scan a photo of the Albino Tiger in my book but would love to see pics if...

Just thought I'd share a couple of (somewhat dodgy) photos just taken of some baby Eastern Brown Snakes (Pseudonaja textilis) I picked up the other day. They are about 9 inches long and are yet to have their first shed. Cheers.

G'day guys, I know there are several people here interested in Brown Snakes (Pseudonaja sp) that may not have access to some of the academic work that has recenly being published on their taxonomy by Adam Skinner from SA uni/museum. I've just read the paper, and thought I would summarise it...

Firstly, Merry Christmas to everyone! My son, Nicholas, and I just returned from a quick camping trip out to the Warrumbungle National Park near the little town of Coonabarabran, NSW. This park is a 6-hour drive from Wollongong. We try to visit it at least once a year for its excellent...

Monday 27th. October, was a warm day in the Victorian Mallee, 37c infact. I was assisting in the checking of drift-fence and pit-trapping lines and, as the day was warm, many small reptile species were trapped and had to be identified, recorded and non target species marked and released. We...

My wife, younger daughter and I went on a walk today in Royal National Park. This was a beautiful autumn's day with temperatures in the mid-20s, clear skies and a light breeze. The summer humidity was gone so the walking conditions were ideal. We followed the Coast Track from Garie Beach to...
