I finally managed to get onto a snake handlers course today. I knew I would have to catch some as part of the course, but I always thought they were non venomous. No, he opens his snake box and chucks an adult king brown snake out, followed by an angry dugite (they can hiss quite loud), and finished off with a juvenile king brown, smaller, just as venomous and angry as its dad but twice as fast.
Got struck at a couple of times, but survived to tell the tale.
