Australia is the true land of snakes! More than 170 species live on this continent. Many of the most venomous snakes in the world come from Australia, but there are also amazing constrictors (pythons). This time we will visit tropical forests of the Cape York peninsula (Queensland), which are home to deadly venomous elapids, beautiful pythons and a few colubrids. In each episode you will see 5 species.
Episode 1 - SNAKE SPECIES, TROPICAL FORESTS OF CAPE YORK
Green tree python (Morelia viridis)
Northern death adder (Acanthophis praelongus)
Brown-headed snake (Furina tristis)
Slaty-grey snake (Stegonotus australis)
Scrub python (Simalia kinghorni)
You never dissapoint. Thank you for the footage. Probably the only way to enjoy this location if you are working peasant.
Glad you enjoyed it! It is so good to read a comment like this - keeping a high quality in our videos is our priority!
That scrub python looks like he stays in shape.
Thank you for watching! All these snakes were in a good shape 🙂
Thanks. So many snakes, good thing to feature 5 only per video. I personally like seeing the adder but only in front of the screen.
We first present 5 snake species each episode and at the end we will put more species together for a longer video :)
During any snake encounter, Johan Marais of the African Snakebite Institute ASI, says that moving back 5 metres away away from even a dangerously venomous snake will make you completely safe. Even from spitting cobras; they are accurate up to 3 metres in at least 1 eye!
@@IANCHARLES1965 Yes, keeping your distance is always a safe strategy.
The patterns on the scrub pythons are beautiful!
Yes, we absolutely agree!
Snakes Of Australia 🇦🇺 Are Quite Handsome & Green Tree Python Has Amazing 🤩 Sensory Processing Pits Well Done 👏 For Revealing These Beautiful Animals 🎉
Yes, some of Australian snakes are really beautiful! Thank you very much for watching our new video!
Great finds and as always great camera and sound work! The best!🐍
Thank you very much! 🙏🙂
Wonderful cinematography guys. That green snake was almost luminous - beautiful! Where as the adder, despite its relatively small size had a head on it the size of a Pit Bull Terrier .
Thank you very much for watching! Great that you love our content.
Great video !! Thank you for all these informations you are giving!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
Wonderful footage as always: the carpet python at the beginning is the most beautiful one I've seen. The green tree python is beautiful as always, but the scrub python was stunning: they're amazingly slender.
Thank you very much! More footage of the beautiful Carpet python will be featured in some video in the future :) Pythons of Australia are really amazing.
I'm a huge fan of your videos! The more I watch, the more I like'm... Wish you guys would do some herping in Wisconsin....we've got some crazy different morphs of Eastern Hoggy's (there's a solid blue/grey type that has two cobra-ish eye marks on its "hood", and the first one I saw made such a convincing hissing hooded cobra show that I really had to stop and consider the possibility it was an escaped pet cobrafrom some awesome collection, so instead of just picking her up (she was in the road), I grabbed a snake wrangling stick and began to wrangle, when suddenly she flipped over on her back and stuck her tongue out....they're my favorite snakes to run across around here, them or a docile milksnake, or a big ol' pine snake...) amongst a whole lotta other cool snakes and awesome turtles.
Thank you so much! Awesome that you like them more and more! :) Maybe one day! Hoggy's are super cool and we haven't seen any yet!
@@LivingZoology, Growing up in New England in the 1960s and 70s, hognose snakes were very uncommon and the few times we encountered one I never saw it actually attempt to "play dead".
Lovely as always.
Thank you so much 😊
Never heard of the slaty grey or the scrub python b4. Love learning about new snakes. Thank u 4 another fab video
Thank you very much for watching and we are happy that you learned new things!
Beautiful shots of some of these magnificent animals.
Thank you very much! 🙏
Gotta watch out for the Venomous ones like the brown tree snake
Brown tree snake is not dangerous for people.
Awesome to see more of the Australian footage! Brilliant as always! Always loving seeming Aussie snakes and our country get more love and attention.
We have lot of footage which will still come out! 🙂 Many greetings from the Czech Republic!
Videos from the Best.
Wow, thanks!
Snakes are AMAZING! I wish everyone thought so. There were a few new snakes in this video that I never knew about before.
Thanks for watching! Great that you discovered some new snakes for you in our video!
Absolutely awesome and informative. Many thanks 🙏
Thank you so much for watching! 🙏
Superb video as always, stunning photography. And why not name a snake from its looks - Slaty Grey!
Thank you very much, we appreciate it! Yes, some snakes from Australia have names easily describing their looks - brown snakes, black snakes, Green tree python, Slatey-grey snake...
Brown Headed Snake, lol...
@@chonqmonk Yes, a good example 😀
The bright green tail of the Death Adder is very unusual!
It is not so unusual, some adders have light tails like that.
Nice episode! Waiting for the next ones.
Thank you! There will be more!
incredible video as always, thanks for the hard work :)))))))
Thank you very much for watching! Great that you love our work! 🙂
Bring it!!
Enjoy! 🙂
@@LivingZoology gladly
Very good footage as always. I mentioned you recently to Jason Arnold of Durban South Africa. He has many KZhead posts of his snake rescues. If you are ever returning to South Africa, I recommend you get in touch. He might be a good person to know in that region, although he deals with getting black mambas, green mambas, spitting cobras etc out of people's homes, but top of his craft professionally. He already subscribes to your channel.
Thanks for watching again and recommending our channel! 🙂 We worked with Nick Evans in Durban and it is good to hear that there are more great rescuers there!
Really interesting vedeo good work ❤️! Australia is a good exemple of human-snake cohabitation 🇦🇺
Many many thanks! Australia has so many cool reptiles!
This is absolutely the most incredible reptile content channel I've ever seen on KZhead 10/10 🏅 And, I watch them all ! Someday, someone - will get to the Philippines and document the three species of predominantly frugivorous Monitor Lizards. There's less than 15 minutes of actual footage on KZhead. And most is just captive Varanus Olivaceous. I'm baffled by the lack of information on these species. (Hint, hint) ❤
Thank you so much, we appreciate it a lot! 🙏❤️ There are so many species to film, maybe we will visit Philippines in the future 🙂
@@LivingZoology I wouldn't even bring it up if any substantial content existed. I mean, these are quite large Varanids and UNIQUE as anything in the genus. I absolutely love your content. Thanks for the consideration 😃 I've never seen ANYONE present any decent documentation of wild specimens. Thanks again ☺️
Úžasní hadaci!!! Prostě Austrálie! Díky za video a ať se daří dál!🤩👍👍👍
Děkujeme za sledování videa! 🙏🙂
Love from India🤝🤝🤝
Love from the Czech Republic!
lovely
Thank you!
Amazing video ,,, request : please have a level of snake venom
Thank you for watching! 🙂
Amazing ❤
Thanks 😄
In Queensland right now on my first herping trip to Australia! Up in cooktown area. Any tips for finding snakes? Found one coastal taipan on the drive up but that’s it so far.
Good luck! Generally road cruising at night on remote roads is good!
@@LivingZoologysuccess! Thanks for the tip! Big carpet python crossing the road last night!
@@fishincheap1102 Very nice! 👍
Your videos are always an impressive result with high quality and super educational. Thank you guys for this unique work. You already gave us some fascinating videos to many different snake species wich belong to the most venomous in the world. If there could be a realistic opportunity, I would love to see the top venomous snakes from Papua New Guinea like the PNG Taipan or maby from Thailand on this channel. Greetings from Germany! Love your videos 🔥
Thank you very much! It is great that you love the quality and educational value of our content 🙂 We plan to visit Thailand in the future, that is a country with realistic prices for us. A trip to PNG sounds like not really doable for us right now…
I hope we can agree 🤣...that there is no better place to do snake research than Australia,respect for Africa and Asia
From our point of view, Africa and Asia is on the same level as Australia, lots of super cool snakes too!
@@LivingZoology ok i think the details
waiting
You will love the video! 🙂
@@LivingZoology sure
Can you find snakes everywhere including major cities
Yes, there are large cities which have many snakes!
Ależ różnorodność węży w tej Australii.
Thank you for watching!
Wander how many times people walk by death adders without even knowing it. If they don’t move you prob won’t even know they are there.
It must happen all the time! We found this one during road cruising, it is super difficult to see them when they are camouflaged in the leaf litter!
@@LivingZoology and it also makes me wander how many times they just let you go without striking. Now I imagine if you step on one they would tag u. But if they notice that you have no clue they are there they won’t go out of the way to strike.
@@shawnmccarthy2635 They are very very placid, almost never striking. The only scenario when they would strike is probably if you directly step on them.
👍🙏
Thank you!
You are very good sir
Thank you very much!
