There are more than 100 red black snakes in the Sydney backyard

Australian reptiles say they were amazed to save 102 toxic snakes from a pile of pile in the backyard of Sydney.

Kuri Keruaro said that his work was initially called to save a “handful” of reptiles after it was reported that one of them had been bitten by a dog in the property.

When his colleague arrived, he discovered 40 red black snakes – four of which gave birth to more direct youth as soon as they were placed in a removal bag.

Red black snakes are one of the most common toxic species in Australia but have not caused any human deaths.

There are five snakes for adults and 97 children under quarantine and will be launched in a national park once the weather cools.

Mr. Kerewaro said it was record distances for snake treatments, who usually pick up between five and 15 reptiles per day.

He said he remembers his colleague Dylan Cooper, who he called within 15 minutes to say: “Matti, I will be here some time. It's a very big pile … I am already more than 15 snakes!”

“I thought he was shouting me.”

He added that the dog was “in good health” after the accident on the boxing day.

Red black snakes often gather in small groups when they are ready to give birth, and perhaps to protect from predators, according to Mr. Kearo.

The Australian Museum on its website says it is the only snake for their sex that puts a living birth.

This type is shy, and it can cause bites – although uncommon – swelling, nausea and diarrhea.

Snake fishermen are required by law to release animals near the place of found. But given the size of this discovery, the fishermen were given permission to launch snakes in a national garden away from human interactions.
