Because GAFOffTopic loves it's animal stories here's some reports in the last few days,

The first was a python eating a Wallaby (small version of a kangaroo) and her baby.

The second is a brown snake (highly venomous) eating a python.

Ahh, the circle of life... or sumtin'.

and finally a feel good story of a tourist who was hospitalised after standing on a green tree snake. How rude.

You get used to wrestling the giant snakes after awhile, it's really good for your chest muscles too!

Spoiler

thats why Roos are so swole

 

[DJwest]

Nope. Just no!

 

[EatChildren]

Snakes...are CUTE!

 

[HowZatOZ]

How the hell do you go to hospital after being bitten by a tree snake. They are nonvenomous and the cutest pet snakes to have. Also really bloody good to have in your trees to eat pests alongside carpet snakes in your roof to eat rats/mice.

I was wondering that! I'm no expert so I wasn't sure but I thought they weren't dangerous.

It was at a zoo so the zoo was being overly cautious.

They should just keep snake bite emergency repair kits on hand.

A snake bite emergency repair kit is a body bag

Right fair enough I guess, caution is always advised no matter the snake I guess.

Despite our ridiculously venomous animals that we share our land with, I'm actually very proud of how intact our flora and fauna is. Wouldn't have it any other way. Well except cane toads, they can fuck off.

Australians explaining that Australia isn't scary while juxtaposing helpful ceiling and basement snakes is amazing.

I think it's because of the nasty bacteria snakes have in their mouths.

The wallabies mate comes around to check up on him too.

[echoshifting]

Snakes are secret best animal

I wish my wife would let me get a pet tree snake

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

Snakes are cute but they should stop eating other cute animals. It ain't right.

Oy Roonie, u 'avin a giggle there, ya cunt?

I thought it was going to be Florida at first. This gif is amazing, lol.

Vector addition.

 

[Kinyou]

I'm surprised that the snakes just keep on eating. Afaik do they tend to puke their prey up when they get disturbed and run away.

Also this quote made me laugh

"It was an amazing sight.

"I didn't watch it all. I went away to make a cup of tea but came back every hour."

 

[Alligatorjandro]

How do a python catch a wallaby

 

[Haloid1177]

That brown snake looked fucking huge. If that was anywhere near my house I'd be freaking out.

I'm not sure
