Pet Owners Warned - Watch out for Killer Snakes

Pet owners are warned to be on alert after a number of dogs were killed by venomous snakes across Cairns in recent weeks. The most recent being a Maltese Terrier killed by a Taipan at Palm Cove.

Taipans are one of the most venomous snakes in the world.

The increase in snake activity across the city is due to a wet Spring which has created a good breeding season for reptiles.
