How to deal with an Australian Brown Snake

Interesting little story.

With the results of the poll in, with my pick of snakes making it to first spot, it comes as a strange coincidence (karma) that last night, while out at the mine site I work at, I was called out to wrangle a snake that had come into our office area, because, lucky me, I’m one of the certified snake handlers on site.

It was 1 metre long, and it was either a Western Brown, or a Dugite, both quite capable of killing you. Caught him, bagged him, and relocated him away from site.

When I handle a snake (and I mean the animal version), I’d like to think I do it with a little more finesse than this guy.
