[QUOTE="Magilla, post: 357842, member: 3393"] It is the Western Taipan or Fierce Snake that is the worlds most venomous, it is not related to the Coastal Taipan and is also not even close to being as dangerous. The Western Taipan is not aggressive and there has been no fatalities from them. The coastal Taipan can have a bit of attitude, they are a great looking snake but in the 7 years we lived at Daintree in FNQ I only saw two of them despite spending most of my time in the bush. Both were on a main road at night and were 100mts apart. Sounds like there is a good population at Gympie, I believe there are also a lot of other venomous snakes around there as well, definitely be keeping my eyes open if I stop there for a swing.
