There is an island full of deadly venomous snakes near the coast of Australia. It is called Carnac island. The snake species that lives here is the Tiger snake (Notechis scutatus). Supposedly there are about 3 snakes in every 25 square meters! That is an insane abundance of dangerous snakes. The Tiger snake is one of the most venomous snakes in the world. Only a few species of terrestrial snakes, like the Inland taipan or the Eastern brown snakes, have a more toxic venom. The origin of Tiger snakes on Carnac island is a bit of a mystery. In this video we explain why. The island is about 10 km off the coast of Western Australia. No people live here, but this area is home to other animals like skinks, birds and rare Australian sea lion

  • Snake handler in Australia, '' Ben Avery'' was bitten by one of these a couple of years ago. He was bitten on the thumb, and done everything right, but still had a horrible time, with his kidney's shutting down, and he was on Renal Dialysis for a couple of weeks. Show's the potency of the Tiger's venom.
  • Sounds like the island off of Brazil with the lighthouse on it. Its heavy population of deadly snakes makes it off-limits to everyone except service personnel for the lighthouse, and scientists studying the snake population.
  • Just stunning photography as usual. The colouring of the tiger snakes is wonderful, a truly beautiful snake.

    Have you guys heard of King and Mount Chappell Islands ? They have monster, all black tiger snakes that grow thick and close to 2 plus meters in length. Awesome to see this team still working around Australia.
  • The islands in Bass Strate have a separate “island tiger” snake growing to nearly 1800mm, six feet. These live on Muton Bird ( Shearwater) chicks. Thus they only feed once or twice a year, as they are limited in the size of chicks they can swallow.
  • Thanks, great video showing us the insight of the tiger snake as usual very well shot.
  • Thank you so much for making this video it’s so awesome and the snakes are beautiful I love their colors and the sea lions are so adorable
  • Awesome video as usual ! Was on garden island couple months ago and there's loads there too

    I appreciate the surrounding sounds and words for captions instead of a voice and musak.
  • @geoffb108
    Really great nature documentary. Thankyou
  • WOW, big Tiger at 1-19. They have beautiful scaly heads, and coloring, and oh so venomous.
  • I’m writing this comment on a plane to Australia right now. Thanks for giving me a new destination on my trip!

    They are much bigger than the mainland Tigers around Perth probably due to the abundance of food, eggs and seagull chicks.
