this is my post from 2 week ago im in vic
Hi, Yesterday I took the dogs and ferrets out to give the dogs a quick chase, found a 4 holer, put 1 ferret down dogs chased 2 rabbits and then I heard some noises and the ferret came out backwards dragging out a 4 ft brown snake...So I quickly got the dogs on the leads and then stood back and waited.
The ferret then started fighting with the snake, I was shocked that the ferret didn't get bitten and after a few minutes the snake went back down the hole.
One luck ferret...and silly me for taking him out in the summer...
