I spotted number of Red Belly snakes just off Cape Banks in a swampy area on the prey for food. Watch how these snakes fully submerge in the water to try and flush out a short finned eel. (on the menu for Red Bellies) Red Belly snakes are one of the most talked about and recognised of all snakes in Australia. #nationalparksandwildlife They generally hang around swamps and lagoons and feed on a variety of vertebrates including fish, tadpoles, frogs, lizards, snakes (including its own species) and mammals. When hunting in water they fully submerge, stirring up underwater sediment as they hunt to flush out hidden prey. Considering its size, the Red-Bellied Black Snake is probably the least dangerous elapid snake in Australia, however all suspected bites should be treated as serious and medical attention sought as soon as possible.
