Oh no, my lengthy reply has just vanished TWICE Rant !!! Here I go again...

I am sure you were horrified to read my post then, Nuytsia, but I promise they only die when circumstances are dire (such as was the case with the boiling water and shotgun...the King Brown was extremely agitated and I needed for it to either relocate itself or die...it chose not to relocate itself after numerous attempts to encourage it to do so and I was cornered with young children to protect. That I escaped with my life and no puncture wounds to my face is an outcome for which I will always be thankful...*shudder*...it's a long story but it was a very near thing!).

Innocent We do relocate most, and just as often get as many pythons and non-venomous visitors as we do the deadly ones. Maybe I have just been in far too many life-threatening situations with the deadly ones. and the motherly instinct takes over...fight or flight usually ends in the need to fight in close quarters and so very far from the benefit of a doctor...hence my dislike.

Outside, out in the paddock or the bush or wherever, they're fine, but sometimes it's just a case of kill or be killed in the home environment...like Fitz and the Forged ones, it's not always pleasant but nonetheless necessary. Here's a pic of my daughter with a python, just for proof that we're not a bunch of trigger-happy snake killers Smiling

Maulkin, a sheep station in this context is just a large sheep farm and the term tends to be used throughout Australia and New Zealand (though many people who live in Australian and NZ towns still, usually incorrectly, call them 'farms'). A similarly used term would be a sheep property eg The property I live on now is a cattle station whereas I grew up on a sheep station. Loved your snake pic!
