I'm A Celebrity chaos as deadly snake spotted yards from Ant and Dec's apartment
ok.co.ukA highly venomous snake capable of killing has been spotted just yards from Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly's I’m A Celebrity apartment.
Signs have been put up warning locals on a beach entrance at Kingscliff in New South Wales that a "large brown snake" was seen there in recent days.
It is thought to be an Eastern brown snake, one of the top ten most deadliest snakes found in Australia. A show source said: "Ant and Dec will have to keep their eyes peeled when on the beach and in the surrounding area.The snake has been spotted exactly where they hang out between shows and brown snakes are not to be messed with. "Snakes are part of Aussie life but it is still scary to think one of these was slithering around so close by." Aggressive, quick and known for their bad temper, Eastern brown snakes, together with other browns, are responsible for more deaths every year in Australia than any other group of snakes.
According to Australia Geographic, their venom is ranked as the second most toxic of any snake in the world (based on tests on mice), they thrive in populated areas, particularly on farms in rural areas with mice.
