Snakes Alive!

Nuch and I were doing some weeding in front of the house at MKT today and out rolled this little fellow from under the leaves. Probably no more than 10cm long but beautifully marked.

What is it?
A white spotted slug snake

Is it venomous?
Not at all

Is it rare?
Apparently not at all

What did we do with it?
We evicited it from the garden and put it in the bushes down by the stream.

I am sure it will be back though as there are slugs aplenty.
