[QUOTE="AussieChris, post: 362378, member: 4915"] Yeah unless you or family are in immediate danger, you are facing a $7500-$11000 fine for indiscriminately killing a snake in Aus. Not sure of the circumstances with the Tiger here but it prob could have been left alone, it's ingrained into us that the only good snake is a dead one....I'm more worried about bloody spiders. We had a Whitetail in our bed the other night, gave me the chills. Then I was moving a piece of driftwood I had bleaching in the sun and out popped one of the biggest Redbacks I have ever seen, its abdomen nearly as big as a 5c piece. My dad got bit on the hand by one, was not pretty....even though they say redbacks do not cause necrotising arachnidism, I remember his hand swelling up like a football and the skin peeled off.
