A man went into total rage and ruthlessly slaughtered a massive brown snake after it allegedly murdered his dog.
The dreadful killing of the one and half meter long venomous reptile infuriated snake catcher Tony Harrison who arrived at the scene moments later.
“The snake was only trying to defend itself during which it killed his dog. Therefore butchering the reptile was not necessary. His actions did not bring his dog back,” says Harrison, after he shared posts of the dead snake on his Facebook page named ‘Gold Coast and Brisbane Snake Catcher’.
It is being reported that the dog owner used shovel to butcher the reptile. The snake catcher was alerted by a neighbour who had spotted the lifeless brown reptile on the wall.
“Now we have two animals dead because of the action that was taken by the dog owner,” Harrison laments.
He warns dog owners to desist from sending their dogs to attack snakes they come across in the wild. Such actions, he argues, can lead to dire consequences, just like in this case. The situation could be worse because the venomous reptile could have hurt
