00:00Oh, hey big fella. Seen any snakes around here?
00:10Was that a nod?
00:14Oh, mig, mig, mig!
00:15What have you got?
00:16I don't know, I think it's either a ruffy or a keelback.
00:18Where is he?
00:19Just over here in the hedge.
00:20Yeah, it's a keelback.
00:24The harmless keelback looks almost identical to the highly venomous rough-scarred snake.
00:29Both of which are found on the Sunshine Coast.
00:32As the name suggests, the keelback is best identified by looking for horizontal ridges or keels in its body scales,
00:40which are believed to help it swim when hunting prey like frogs or small fish.
00:46He's moving a little bit.
00:48Yeah, where about?
00:49No, no, no, he's going back through that way.
00:50Oh, he's going in?
00:51Yeah, yeah.
00:54Oh, he's in the pool, he's gone in the pool.
00:59He's in the pool.
