[QUOTE="Archimedes, post: 519682, member: 16525"] My opinion of snakes has changed significantly since moving to victoria 14 years ago. I grew up in the bush around Sydney and although snakes were common they got out of your way very quickly. The snakes I have encountered down here seem much more reticent to move. We have browns living under our chook house in the veggie patch and they are very reticent to move when you encounter them. I came within 2 strides of stepping on a large tiger earlier this year - he/she just froze and flared its neck. Had I not looked down when I did it may have been nasty. You can imagine stepping on one mid centre, he will just latch on. So much for stomping around and they get out of your way. Not so sure now. [/QUOTE]
