Goanna's are your friends who devour any small snake whenever possible, that's the end of the friendship.
Last week, an old bloke I know decided to pat a goanna whilst picnicking in the Royal National Park, as a result he has been in hospital for 5 days for repairs to damaged tendons, veins and other bits of flesh that were damaged. Blood everywhere. As he reflexed to withdraw his extended hand, the goanna climbed up his trousers and bit the offending appendage. Goanna's are very quick & he was lucky that the trousers protected him from the claws.
So, Harry now says don't pat the wildlife.
Harry is in his early 80's and still learning, hope we can take something from that.
