Snake Catcher Steven Morrow Hospitalized Following Brown Snake Bite in Mildura
In Victoria’s scorching north-west, a self-employed snake catcher found himself battling for consciousness after being bitten by one of Australia’s most lethal reptiles.
Amidst a surge in snake sightings with rising temperatures in Victoria’s hottest local government area, Mr. Morrow was one of three snake catchers operating in the vicinity.
Reflecting on the incident earlier this month, Mr. Morrow, boasting 30 years of reptile-handling expertise, expressed the emotional difficulty in recounting the attack.
