Flattens its neck when threatened. Back away slowly.
- Common death adder (Acanthophis antarcticus)
Short and thick with a broad head and a thin, pale tail tip.
Sits still rather than moving off, so it is easy to step near.

Very thin and fast, grey-green with a pale ring around the eye.
Bites are painful but rarely serious for adults. Still worth a check-up.
