I always carry an explorer sock down the front of my pants for that reason.

I'm lucky in that I don't need the sock

Should have put some trousers on him has that look of embarrassment about him . For Anolphart ya not bad with the technology :Y: keep up the good work.

 

[Anolphart]

Naaaah I can't take credit for that one. I was about to create one but then I thought that I'd just check with Mr Google ... and sure enough, there he was in all his glory!

It was a toss up between that and this one...

Just a few Browns around atm.
They can live anywhere.
Just have to be careful and dont corner them or try to pick them up.
All good. They are protected animals and have their place.

any other info

 

[yellowmellow]

I reckon they would be in hollows of logs under rocks in holes in the ground and they like where there is a lot of fresh water around and swampy lowish river and creeks areas and thick long grass too

Contact the local DEWLP office and ask those who look after their environment all of your concerns, they know what breeds are local. Sounds like you are a bit concerned about them, your best decision will be don't panic if you come across any. Be vigilant and keep a watch for them. Different breeds will cohabitate in one location as for creeks you can encounter any local breed. The most common I've encountered near creeks are Tigers, keep out of their way and they won't bother you but if you upset one they can be very aggressive.

I heard they can smell the scent of fear, particularly strong if combined with an urban postcode. Like catnip for snakes.

 

[Smoky bandit]

Guess they can learn. ickshovel:
