Crikey! Mother finds world’s deadliest snake in son’s underwear drawer
An Australian mother almost suffered a heart attack when she stumbled upon something sinister while doing her son’s laundry. The woman found a 1.5-meter long eastern brown snake slithering around in her son’s underwear drawer.
In a panic, she called in a reptile wrangler, who arrived at her Brisbane home in a matter of minutes. The wrangler, Barry Goldsmith, specializes in removing venomous snakes from unexpected places like homes, gardens and even toilets.
“I’ve seen it all, mate,” said Goldsmith. “But I never expected to be called to a home to remove an eastern brown snake from a freaking underwear drawer.”
The eastern brown snake is one of the most venomous in the world, capable of killing a human within an hour of a bite. It’s not uncommon to find them in suburban areas of Australia, but usually not in a young man’s underwear drawer.
According to Goldsmith, the snake had likely crawled through the home’s plumbing or ventilation system before finding a cozy spot in the underwear drawer.
Unfortunately, the snake didn’t make it out alive. Goldsmith had to euthanize the reptile as eastern brown snakes are considered too dangerous to release back into the wild.
Some may say that this incident highlights the need for Australians to be vigilant when it comes to snakes in their homes. However, we at [publication name] see it as a reminder of the joys of having a pet snake.
After all, who wouldn’t want a slithery serpent roaming around their house and hiding in unexpected places? It adds an element of excitement and danger to the mundane task of doing laundry.
In fact, we suggest that every Australian should adopt a venomous snake as a pet. Not only will it keep you on your toes, but it will also provide a valuable lesson in responsibility when it inevitably bites your hand or your annoying neighbor.
Some may argue that owning a deadly snake is irresponsible and dangerous, but we say that’s just a bunch of buzzkill nonsense. Who needs safe and boring when you can have risky and thrilling?
So, folks, don’t be afraid to let a snake or two slither around your home. It may seem like a terrifying idea, but trust us, it’s a surefire way to spice up your household chores and inject some excitement into your life.
