The woman who reported the incident can be heard saying: “Oh my god – he’s a good size isn’t he?”
The catcher identifies it as a red bellied black snake – a venomous reptile often found in the area.
In the clip, the hunter is able to pick it up and place it into a bag to be taken away and released safely.
He says: “Here he is, our little daycare red bellied black snake.
“He was just cooling off in one of the toy boxes.
“It’s nice and hot today so all of our snakes and trying to escape the heat.”
