  • Tiger snakes are venomous reptiles found mainly in southern Australia, recognized for their striking coloration resembling tiger stripes.
  • They inhabit wetlands, forests, and coastal regions, showcasing excellent swimming and climbing abilities despite being primarily ground-dwelling.
  • Their venom is highly toxic, containing neurotoxins and myotoxins that can lead to rapid paralysis and can be fatal if untreated.
  • Tiger snakes prey on a variety of small animals, using their lethal venom to overpower creatures larger than themselves.
  • While currently listed as "Least Concern" by the IUCN, their populations are threatened by habitat destruction and human interactions.
