That's sad, nice Tiger too. looks like the spade brigade wasn't game to finnish the job and called you, Baz?!

This tiger was in shed and didnt see me sneaking up him. Lucky to because they were ready to decapitate it with the shovels.

Richard, its not the first time. At least I managed convince this family that killing snakes is bad.

Here is an example of what happens when you try to film yourself..
this was before I released this happy camper.

That's why I love Copperheads, always very accommodating. For example, I love the way he immediately offered you his tail rather than striking!

When this one came to me it had an open wound in its side, but it did come with an attitude to.
I was happy to finally be rid of it actually, In the vid 'Copperheads with Laura" you can see him swimming away at the end.

I am yet to meet a copperhead with attitude Barry. Might be a big city thing, the closer you get to Melbourne the more attitude everything any everybody seems to have.
They must be one of the most inoffensive snakes on the planet.

Here's one I prepared earlier. Not wanting to start a free handling debate, just an indication of how quiet some can become in a few minutes of handling. This one even hung around after!

omg it looks like the snake has eaten some of your apple... thats why he didnt wan to eat you... in all honesty, When i was in Tas and working with superbus i found them to be very accomodating well the older ones .

That's why I had to let her go, or she would have finished it!

I caught this Little Whip Snake at 3am. He was a cute little guy and the client had already caught him. He was exploring his kitchen so they had put a bucket on top of him. Apparently the client was very close to just killing it because he didn't want to pay $280 or so that some one quoted him. Fun times when snake catchers do it for the money not the snakes...

The picture is from the next day after I had gotten some sleep and just before I headed out to release him.

 

[waruikazi]

Ah well, everyone has to make a crust! Good work!

 

[Snake Catcher Victoria]

$280 is a bit over the top,
I spoke to a recently widowed 77 year old lady
who was charged $400 to remove a bluetongue.
Great pic Andrew
