Pale-headed Snake

Description:

The Pale-headed snake is a venomous species of snake found on the east coast of Australia. They feed on frogs and small reptiles. This one was relocated from clearing activities (see notes).

Habitat:

Forests and woodlands. Live in hollow trees.

Notes:

This was one lucky snake. Captured and relocated during clearing activities a few days ago. The excavator was banging a large tree while trying to push it over which opened up a large split into the tree's hollow center. Then out popped this Pale-headed snake. I promptly got the driver to stop and got it out of the tree. The last photo shows him coming out.
