The Snake pictured above was found at a plane's doorway in Australia on September 22, the Australian Government Department of Agriculture identified it as a Mandarin rat snake predominantly found in Asia. This forced the grounding of a Tokyo-bound Qantas flight in Sydney after being found near the doorway of the plane. A spokesperson from the Department of Agriculture has praised Qantas’s quick actions, with the finding of the snake demonstrating the important collaborative efforts of the department and airport staff in identifying and containing serious biosecurity risks.
This snake can travel, from Tokyo to Sydney.
