Spectacular and....lethal!
Were you in a controlled environment or did you "spot" it during a hike?
Congratulations!

Hi Davide, I came across the specimen in question at the Inala Jurassic Garden on Bruny Island, if you want a sort of extensive botanical garden dedicated to "prehistoric" essences. Therefore an environment shaped by man, but permanently frequented by wild fauna that manages to overcome the fences. And in any case, the always exciting encounter with snakes is not so rare around Tasmania. Thank you for passing by and for your appreciation. ;-)

If you noticed on the back just below the head, the poor tiger had two unwanted passengers stuck between his scales. I wonder if the snake is able to free itself from the ravenous ticks with the shedding of its skin...
