Sea Krait Slithers Into Darwin Casino

[identityissues8]

First things first, I'd like to post an image of the headline before they notice the MAJOR typo and edit it. 'Sky' doesn't have four S's.

Anyway, I'm glad this snake catcher got his wish to find this particular type of snake. Hell, I'm glad he got the honour of being a part of the rarity that is the second ever banded sea krait found in Darwin. Though, snakes are pretty elusive and good at hiding so I'd hazard to say there's probably been a lot more.

Anyway, glad I've never been anywhere where a sea krait has been present. (Or, in recent years, any snake in general.)

I wonder how the patrons at the Casino reacted?

I think those three extra s's is the snake hissing.

I would have had a heart attack if I had seen that thing!

The guy holding the snake and the that released it with no gloves and bare legs must have balls of solid cast iron.

Ha, I'd literally only just got up this morning when I read it. Damn it!

He's a professional snake catcher.
I'm not saying the way he's doing it is by any means at all smart or safe, but I'm sure he knows what he's doing.
