I came across a Mulga snake that was sizing up eating my sisters cat, which was also considering its way of killing 7ft of pure death. Chased off the stupid cat with spade on the back porch and lopped the snakes head off as it reared up. In hindsight this is up there in the litany of 'dumb shit' in my life I'm not real proud of, being as far as we were from the hospital I'd have not lived it it bit me. Still the biggest venomous snake I've ever personally seen, I did see a scrub python up in far north Qld that would probably been cracking the 9-10ft mark but they don't bother people.
>>1691985Yep the old Eastern is quite fearless in some respects compared to some snakes, they don't go out of their way to bite people but they also don't take any shit either!
About the only up-side is they will sometimes dry-bite people, which isn't much of a consolation at the time but you're pretty damn lucky to survive two hits from one
