Re: A tiger snake in the class room.
Has it had any counselling? I wouldn't like to think of it missing out on a full and active social life.the very shy Tasmanian Tiger Snake
Re: A tiger snake in the class room.
For a 'tiger', it's rather dark colored lol. No cat around huh...

Hi Sam,
Hi plwk,
kind regards,

They are naturally very placid creatures unless threatened or stepped on. Its the nasty human beings who would kill these gracious creatures on sight that require the counselling.Sam Vara wrote:Has it had any counselling? I wouldn't like to think of it missing out on a full and active social life.
Hi plwk,
They have a wide range of colour morphs depending on their habitat. I've seen some near-white tiger snakes, some jet black and some that have the classic tiger banding in a number of colours. As far as being dangerous - these guys pack enough venom in one bight to kill 10 people. They've been known to kill a clydesdale horse or two.For a 'tiger', it's rather dark colored lol. No cat around huh...
kind regards,
Ben
