On the morning of Thursday, 9th November, a woman in Sydney was attacked by a python that was more than six metres long.

This is not the first time that a snake has attacked someone in Australia. In fact, it's not even the first time that this type of attack has happened in Australia. A giant python was also captured in Melbourne back in 2011.

A python is an extremely dangerous animal and can cause significant harm to humans if they are provoked or entangled by them.

When a Giant Python Attacks in Australia

The first recorded python attack in Australia occurred in 1883. There are no records of any other python attacks until the early 2000s.

In the past decade, there have been a number of python attacks in Australia. Here are some statistics about these giant snakes.

There were two cases of fatal snake bites in 2017 and 2018, which is much lower than the average for the past ten years.

How to Avoid Getting Attacked by a Python

Australia is home to many venomous snakes, and it's important to know how to avoid getting attacked by these snakes. Learn the most common ways that people get bitten and what you can do if you think you've been bitten.

Avoiding snake bites is not as difficult as it may seem. There are a few ways that people can avoid being bitten by a snake while they are out in the wild. These include: staying away from snake habitats, wearing shoes with thick soles, avoiding walking barefoot on ground, wearing long sleeves and pants, and carrying a hiking stick or walking stick.

If you have been bitten by a snake or suspect that you have been bitten, seek medical attention immediately. The best way to prevent getting bit again is to learn how to identify poisonous snakes in the wild so that they don't bite again.

Wild Animal Attacks in Australia - How the Governance System Works

Australia is a country that is home to many different animals. From the iconic kangaroo to the venomous snake, Australia has a wide range of wildlife that can be dangerous if not handled correctly.

The Australian government has been in charge of managing animal attacks since 1828. The Australian Government Department of Environment and Energy oversees their management and the state governments are responsible for implementing the laws and regulations.

The Australian Government Department of Environment and Energy manages animal attacks through an Animal Management Program which covers all aspects of animal management including prevention, protection, control, eradication, rehabilitation, research and education.

What is the History of Snakes in Australia and How Did They Get There?

Australia is home to a wide variety of snakes. These include the Eastern Brown Snake, Blue Ringed Octopus, Eastern Copperhead, and the Common Death Adder. The country has been invaded by the snakes over time due to its unique geographic location in the Southern Hemisphere and a lack of natural predators.

Snakes were brought to Australia by humans who brought them on their boats or ships. They were used as food or as pets until they became too much of a nuisance for humans and were killed off for good.

Australia was originally inhabited by humans around 50,000 years ago when it was colonized by people from Southeast Asia who had been migrating across land bridges that connected Australia with New Guinea for thousands of years before that.
