This shows how much snakes will flee as a first choice.
DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME!
This highly venomous eastern brown snake just wants me to leave it alone. I decided to video it for educational purposes only.

Flashback to a great coastal carpet python I caught from a school. The student's were way too interested in it to leave it so we took it to some nearby bush where there's a nice creek. Watch it climb! I will never get sick of seeing these gorgeous animals move and climb!

This Common tree snake was living in the walls of a house in south Mackay. It took a drain camera to find him. Thankfully the owner was about to re-clad his home and didn't mind removing a section of external wall to get him out. This is his release 😀

This is a carpet python taking up residence in my neighbour's letterbox. Its great footage to show how they can work themselves into such small places. Needless to say, the postie didn't deliver any bills that day🤣He also refused to pay rent, so he was safely relocated to bushland better suited to his budget.

Hello, I would just like to introduce myself after Heather graciously granted me admin access to this page. My name is Darren and I'm a Mackay local of 30 years and one of your local catchers. I have an avid fascination and love for our slithery friends and believe that education is key to the protection of our wildlife. I will be posting/sharing some of our catch and release content which I really hope you enjoy 😀. Please note the footage will be raw and unedited. (Sometimes even swear words 😮) Managing a lively Taipan and an iPhone isn't a great combination unless there are two of us on the call out, but we do our best. I look forward to seeing your comments on the pending content and wish you and your families a very safe and merry Xmas!!

Happy world snake day.
This is one of my favourite catches to date. A big chonker eastern brown that was in the middle of nowhere. The only reason he had to be moved was because the workers had to maintain the box. They finished the job in 20 minutes and let me put it back. I love that so much!
Eastern brown. Pseudonaja textilis.
And thanks goes to Allen Glover for the wicked video skills. Coz we all know if I was in charge of that, it would be a video of my feet! 🤣

Flashback to this beauty from Andergrove. I caught this coastal carpet python at Ian Ferrier place. It wasn't too excited about me picking it up. Tried to take a few bites out of me. And rightly so. I interrupted a great nap!

I went out to this yellow faced whip snake, demansia psammophis, a few weeks back. A friend saw it next door to them and was worried that it hadn't moved much. They were right. It had a massive puncture wound. I took it to Beauden Jenkyns for a second opinion and sadly, it had to be euthanised. We suspect a cat or a small bird of prey due to the small claw marks down the rest of the body.
We troed really hard to save ut. Sometimes, it's kinder to let them go.

I have been a bit quiet lately but I have done a couple of fun nakeys. The first was a beautiful eastern brown snake, pseudonaja textilis. It was at a property in Sarina in their granny flat area. I went with Allen Glover as back up. Lucky I did. It was a tricky catch that took a fair bit of skill and a touch of luck. It turned out well and we bagged the snake.
