A “deadly” sea snake has washed onto a beach with a warning from a reptile expert for the public never to touch them.
Drew Godfrey, of Hervey Bay Snake Catchers, told how “alarm bells” started ringing when he heard that an adult sea snake had reached the shore in Torquay, Queensland.
He had received a call that an injured, adult olive-headed sea snake had been found in the latest sighting this year, it is reported.
