I'm no Aussie.  8)

This is the most dangerous snake in Sweden. It can only kill very small children or old or weak/allergic people. I have lots of them near the house.

Those ones are nasty I hear! They often hide in peoples gardens and in debris piles near suburban homes and if you're bitten you wont notice any symptoms for at least 30 minutes.............and then all of the sudden you drop DEAD :evillaugh:

The Fierce Snake is the Deadlist snake on Earth which is why I would love to see one IRL.

I picked one up when I was a kid and chased my sister with it.

Ain't seen no fierce snake nor taipan.

Seen a few tiger snakes. These are the only snakes I've seen or heard of in Melbourne.

I haven't seen an inland taipan (unless it was behind a glass barrier, or dead by the side of the road), but I have seen, and killed, one Eastern brown snake and a red-bellied black snake. Small ones that my cat brought live into the house. Would have preferred not to get so close to them, given a choice.

Here is what a tiger snake looks like:


And a dugite (related to brown snakes):


Both of them are really poisonous.
