Snake sends fans fleeing
Print Edition
A POISONOUS snake sent fans fleeing as it slithered near to the playing field of a National Rugby League match in Australia yesterday.
A 1-meter Eastern Brown snake slithered onto the grass between the playing field and the stands in a corner of the Gold Coast stadium during the NRL match between the Gold Coast Titans and the North Queensland Cowboys.
Fans in the vicinity quickly moved to higher ground away from the creature, which is renowned for its speed and aggression. The Eastern Brown snake is considered the world’s second most venomous land-based snake after the Inland Taipan, which is also native to Australia. The snake disappeared down a drain.
