Brown house snake rescued from construction workers in Allens Nek January 2012. I was sure this snake would die from its wounds but after three months the only visible scar is the missing tail. Note the dull eye colouration as the snake is about to shed.
Chameleons. They require live food DAILY and should only be kept by committed people who have access to live crickets and roaches. Please do not take them from the wild to your home as the will be deprived from breeding and probably be killed by cats or dogs plus you will require a permit to keep a local specimen. This one removed from kids who had no idea how to care for him.
