  • While stories of hybrid supersnakes may be common place in some comunities, the snake family is far more diverse than many people realise so in this video we talk about which species can and cannot interbreed
    Hybrid snakes are known to occur in captivity between many species, although they are almost always between two species of the same Genus. Elapids and pythons however are seperated taxinomically at the sub order level making venomous snakes and pythons about as closely related as dogs are to sea lions and ferrets. Because of this level of seperation hybrid animals between the two species are unheared of

And that was some good handling of the snakes, those are some well-mannered carpets for sure! I have a question about your red-belly, have you had her venomous glands removed or do you just trust her calm demeanor and your handling skills? Either way I’m impressed! Keep it up!

    Here in the American west not only do we have rattlesnakes but also the non venomous bull snake which is known for mimicking rattlers in both having a diamondback pattern and faking the rattle noise to deter potential predators. A common urban legend out here is that bull snakes and rattlesnakes have been mating in the wild to form a venomous hybrid!

    Hi greetings from New Zealand, I just love these wildlife documentaries, especially from outback Australia. I remember watching the barefoot bushman, and others way back in the 70's. We don't have snakes in NZ, we get that occasional sea snake and sea krate, both highly venemous, but very timid. Pythons in particular, would lay waste to our native birdlife, and our government won't allow them in. Keep up the good work.

Would be wonderful if someone actually went hang on a second and started to do some real research into why bites are coming up as pythons and eastern browns or multipul snakes on one bite. Instead of telling us were wrong and stupid. To this day I have offered my Medical report to atleast 15 snake "experts" Zero of them have ever taken it to look at it.

    This was a really great video and it answered a question I have had too which was great. We seem to have both Jungle carpet and Murray Darling carpet snakes here in our shed/house and around our property here in the Mary Valley Qld and every now and then we see quite young snakes that look like they could be crossbreeds of the two types and now I know that this is entirely possible I can stop wondering about it and just enjoy them.
    My partner woke me up one morning because he was about to cook something on the stove top when he noticed something strange about one of the electric stove elements. It was moving!! Why? Because two teenage carpet pythons were curled up together on there and only started to move when they realised someone was getting too close for their comfort! They were so gorgeous, we love our rather large python population here.

Cross breeding would sure muddy the geneitics of snakes and l think we humans are doing enough of that ourselves these days, goodness knows half the time what we are actually getting or what will be out there in the future. Loved the red belly they are such calm snakes and l have seen many over the years and very rarely have l seen one be defensive and it just moves along when disturbed.

      Most scientists are able to agree that there is several distinct differences between dingoes and modern dogs, it’s the line at which we cut a species off that’s under constant debate

      Yeah, I think I understood that, however it can be incredibly difficult to stand how taxonomy is so restless.
      Btw, as you've covered cross breeding snakes, have you ever thought about doing a basic video on morphs? Talking about the consequences (Jags) and perhaps giving an incredibly basic overview of the genetics of it? I understand that this may be slightly outside your "zone" of wildlife education, as morphs generally don't appear in the wild due to a number of problems, however I find it incredibly interesting and would like to see what you have to say about it.

    How big do carpet pythons grow and which species of carpet python grows longest or biggest and could you breed a carpet python with a Burmese python or a reticulated python or an African rock python. Are carpet pythons the biggest snakes in Australia? I'm just curious.

    Yeah you can't breed pythons to elapids just like you can't breed them to colubrids but you can breed carpet pythons two ball pythons and reticulated pythons and Burmese pythons because they're all pythons same with a blood python but you can't breathe it with a boa but you can breed different types of boas together I'm not sure about like a red tail and a sand boa but you get the just

      Jonathan c without having worked with the species I’m taking an educated guess here
      If they are in the same genus the odds are it’s genetically possible, however often then can be other factors that prevent such hybrids occurring in the wild such as different chemical signals used by each species to initiate mating, geographic isolation or different mating seasons /habits

      charan kumar yes, but most hybrids are at the genus level
      Pythons do seem to be a funny exception but most cross genus hybrids in pythons involve manipulating their behaviour by placing in either skins of the opposite sex (but same species) or using a live pair to stimulate breeding before swapping out the female for the other species
      Not something that would happen in the wild
      Additionally if the two where to interact the mamba would probobly end up as lunch, male kings are well documented feeding on females and smaller males of their own species let alone other snakes

      @@WickedWildlife I see the internet as a "genie in a box" if there is any information I am unsure of I check it out from many sources I compare notes from people agreeing that do NOT know each other or even me , but as for snakes I've lived with enough of them over the years and to be strictly honest I have absolutely no use for them ..Id rather see them all gone than know anymore exist and I'll tell you why and even if you don't admit it (which is up to you) I still feel you'd have to agree.. That: "Anything on this Earth that has lived past 200 hundred years has tapped either an ancient knowledge of some sort or has started to developer telekinetic abilities ..and in that a Large snake such as an Anoconda 50ft long in the rainforest knows how to move nerve ends so well that anything in its parameter is subject to cardiac arrest.. Even people with no heart problems in thier 30s for instance.. Rats & mice I have no use for in the same.. Cats in large bands can be menacing but definitely have a defense in agility to eradicate both...however a mongoose has a God given talent to do so ..so I'm saying that snakes in cages still get fatigued and still want to kill thier captures.. One can be clever about how to handle them or even be passive enough in company to not get bit a majority of time.. I myself would kill ever snake I could ..to guarantee the wellbeing of my lady or any child in jeopardy ..pets may relax to owners but children are always in danger of both poisonous and non poisonous snakes.. I was literally hunted by a very large 7-8ft black what appears to be mamba in my yard this last summer and there appears to be another taipan black which is slightly shorter than the golden one I shot and posted same exact head herringbone type underbelly but black with a more downward pointed smaller type face..he doesn't strike as fast but I couldn't get a safer shot on the mamba due to he was wrapped around the back of a 12ft building he struck at me and dodged the bullet at close range twice striking within inches of me with my gun at arms ..never have I seen a snake so fast yet even this big up close.. Only thing else this size I've seen in Florida was a rattle snake which was bigger around but more descending and much much slower.. Honestly you will not see anything like this in the suburbs or even town areas away from cities but they are here ..they are murderers and they killed my Doberman-beagle I did not want the fame or recognition I am not a man of revenge either however to me they are mere demons that must be erradicated ..I hope they can be caught and milked ..but you have to know by now "what is written & recorded is not always the case" & "what looks good on paperwork doesn't necessarily look good in realtime" so this time I'm say straight up "hear me man, they are here.. no matter how they got here" they normally flinch so fast the bullet misses them if they are still and close range.. Many helicopters fly over *1 possibility , the climate is truly suited for them *2nd possibility and this particular area is 76 meters above sea level where most of Florida is much lower between 15-3 meters it Is 45 miles away from the Gulf and 28miles away from the closest town .. Tucked in between 2 county forestry reserves less than 2-1miles away and not more than 6 miles to the next forestry area.. Purely grown up.. Hedge bushes 20-30 feet high yippon many hawks and eagles never leave visual sight here unless it's a really bad Hurricane about its 80 degrees in winter has been as high as 123 degrees with 100percent humidity in summer ..it only crosses into freezing a few days out of the year and has not snowed at all here since 1996. I'm not here to downplay anything you learned in school or badmouth anything you represent or stand for I was offended because it was like you were telling me I never saw my wolf's face blown up by rattler my pittbulls face blown up by moccasins or my Doberman Beagle die from bite it literally choked her from inside out she could not move after being bit within a small window of time no swelling just fatal paralysis breathing huff

      *Wonka* I’m sorry for the loss of your dogs, living in a rural area of australia we’ve also lost dogs to snakes
      However many venomous snakes could have the same affect and even here in australia most snakes people think are taipans are not infact taipans But similar looking species like browns
      America has lots of unique snake species so couldn’t say which ones resemble a taipan but I can say they don’t exist out of australia and Papuan new Guinae
      Perhaps there’s a species there that locals use the name taipan for but it doesn’t mean it’s the same species

      @@WickedWildlife thing is and I agree with almost everything you said here on last comment ..but *what if* (hate to start any sentence like this) what if those LLC guys that are in charge of the helicopters & the square mile lots.. Really did replant the species here? (That's a major problem) because 1) it's nearly perfect to match Australia's climate ..its a little more overgrown in places but the salt water resending in air is almost identical.. Same with heat and humidity ..I can appreciate Australians knowing what a hot forest feels like and humidity to boiling .. And so 2) this is a hypothetical conclusion ..if venom is going for high currency exchange ..and we both know neither mambas nor king cobra or coral snake venom is cheap on exchange rates.. There's a motive for restocking the wild.. But even 3) see given most of Florida is low elevation and military ships & AirForce coincide the hotel & resort markets here.. *I think you'll agree .."the waters are rising"? And in that ..if they talk the locals into selling off land lots cheap they can definitely find an extremely high resell value of the higher altitude land ..as in Florida's state government is rich ..so rich it rivals D.C. on political equality ..1/2 the state is Republican half is Democrat ..however we all manager to work together to not only defend the larger mainland ..but to cater a good time resorts included..for most of the United States so those owners of the $800 million dollar Baytown Wharf and Disney and Hilton ..would all be looking for higher ground because most of them as crazy as it is have 11story hotels sitting on 3-5 meter above sea level.. So in a sense it's like the Monarch promising change ..theyd rather kill us than to give us fair trade.. Is this something you could say is within a reasonable doubt.. I'm still going to document the next one I kill thoroughly .. So the fangs will be exposed the remaining venom will be collected the remains will be jarred to verify the species in DNA ..we will find out exactly what it is..because in this scenario * of what you have reason to doubt * and what I have reason to believe.. If I am bitten by this snake ..and I'm a hard working farmer ..former hotel inspector .. I work a lot of construct and I employ survival technical to cut cost.. If I am bitten ..and it is what I say or it is *what you can't name* (I'm a deadman) but even though I'm a man of the woods before I am any city worker as I grew up in the wild before moving here to Florida 28 years ago.. Even that I don't want to know my lady died or a child died.. And if I'd paid more attention I could have saved a good life a deserving person not a hoard of people.. I hope you understand I appreciate your input but this thing was a monster and honestly I've Been in a head on collision caused by a drunk driver going 99.9mph in my lane 78 impala hitting my car 73 cutlass no padding on steering no seat belts no airbag. Demons always take something that demon took my fear to help with him..you know..but this thing nerves me..and I m far from scared of anything .. Wished we could have gotten started on a better side but I'll never take the snakes side against another human being .. Honestly don't know how Australia could be completely positive it's not a taipan anyway.. I mean you know world trade ..its not hard to get anything shipped you can afford. So that's my point of reason ..no reason to really want to be seen with a snake myself .. I like hawks and goats a lot more. But thanks
