Major Crimes Posted October 3, 2019 Author Share Posted October 3, 2019 In case your wondering how poisonous the Brown Snake is. And yes the Taipan is also an Aussie snake The Eastern Brown (Pseudonaja textilis), also known as the Common brown snake is a venomous elapid snake found in the eastern half of Australia, except in Tasmania. ... Based on its LD50 value (subcutaneous) it's considered the world's second most venomous land snake, just after the inland taipan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painted Mohawk, you are correct. We have the pelosi, the shiff, the schumer, the aoc, the omar, the tliab, etc. that make your snakes look like earthworms.

Sixgun Sheridan Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Mr Burrell has seen snakes in some odd places over the years, including in a child's lunchbox and in the rim of a toilet. If I ever end up in Australia I think I'll just hold it 'til I get back home. Then again I probably don't want to take a shower there either... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6267223/Homeowner-gets-nasty-surprise-massive-huntsman-spider-lurking-bathroom.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
