Definitely not cuddly!

But it is still part of the weird and wonderful wildlife that you can find in country Victoria!

Brown SnakeThe Common or Eastern Brown Snake can grow to around two metres, and are fairly slender by snake standards.   In favourable conditions they are known to move around at night.   I guess that the favourable part is a matter of perspective – I was freaked-out enough at seeing this one in broad daylight!   These guys are poisonous and are responsible for the majority of snake bites in Australia – and they move quickly.   If you want to see it up-close click on the photo.
