Cobras are so misunderstood.

Been there, done that, got the bite-marks. We had to throw a bloke off the train one night at Werris Creek - he had three red-bellied black snakes in his bag. He complained bitterly that we had no right to heave him off, because he had a ticket. The PSS just laughed and told him "Yeah, but the bloody snakes don't!"

 

And then there was the time my wife was "volunteered" to remove a large and rather angry python from the top of the fuel tank of an XPT power car...

 

Cheers,
