TAIPAN!!!!!

Taipans are the second most deadly
snakes found in Australia.

You can find them in Northern Australia and New South Wales. They lived in damp, forest areas.

Taipans are shy and prefer to escape from humans. If they can't escape they are very dangerous to humans. If they are cornered they can bite several times. The poison can make you very sick or kill you.

SOMETIMES THEY ACCIDENTALLY COMMIT SUICIDE BY BITING THEMSELVES. THEY ARE NOT IMMUNE TO THEIR OWN POISON.
