A Queensland snake catcher had to wrangle this huge red-bellied black snake after it was found in a local school. 9News

A Queensland snake catcher had to wrangle a huge red-bellied black snake out of a creek after the highly-venemous reptile was found in a local school.

Stuart McKenzie of Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers was called to relocate the thick black serpent last week and was stunned by its size.Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers were called in to collect a massive red belly at a local school last week. "The snakes aren't necessarily getting larger - I think I've just been lucky enough to see a few of the bigger ones," Mr McKenzie told nine.com.au."Because it is breeding season, a lot of the larger adult snakes are on the move."

Just yesterday, Mr McKenzie was called to a home in Nambour, north of Brisbane, where he found a giant carpet python curled up under the bin on a porch.

Veteran snake catcher survives tiger snake bite but says it was his faultAn experienced regional South Australian reptile handler recovers after being bitten by one of the world's most venomous snakes during a cleaning mishap. I think Trump read a poem about that. Well it was. If you minded your own business and left the snake alone a bite wouldn’t have ensued., Maybe if we start biting them back they'll learn their lesson.

Whitehead shines as playmaker in win over WarriorsCanberra lost halfback George Williams to an early head knock against the Warriors, but a much bigger Englishman – Elliott Whitehead - stepped up to star in a 26-14 win.\n Hey how can the Bunker explain the last two calls? Either they're completely incompetent or they're drunk!! The Warriors weren't very good, the Raiders probably would have won anyway, but yet again anything vaguely 50/50 goes against the Warriors with the on and off field officiating. It'd be disheartening except for the fact it happens every week. the official did very well to keep the Raiders in the game. They must be so proud
