Story

Famous reptile

The Tiger Snake, native to Australia, is one of the world's most renowned reptiles. Known for its striking appearance, it features bold bands of black and yellow across its sleek body, a pattern that helps it blend seamlessly into its natural habitat. While its beauty is undeniable, the tiger snake is equally famous for its potent venom and reclusive nature, often avoiding human contact unless provoked. Typically found near water sources such as rivers and wetlands, the tiger snake is an expert hunter, preying on small mammals, birds, and amphibians. Its ability to thrive in diverse environments and its role in maintaining ecological balance highlight its significance in Australia's wildlife.
