Snake on a plane

[Catherine]

This time it was just one snake, in the hold of a plane in Melbourne.
They quickly sent for a snake handler. Because it was dark and Australia, he had to assume it was venomous. It turned out to be a harmless, 2 ft Green Tree Snake. The snake is a protected species so it will find a home with a licenced snake keeper.

The flight was delayed 2 hours, but it could have been much worse. If it had slipped into the walls of the plane, they would have had to take things apart to find it.
It was a lucky catch. Now we just have to hope the snake finds the right home.
