The snake was dead by the time Lees found it, according to Yahoo News. It measured almost a foot long.

"I'd never seen anything like it before," Lees told Yahoo News. "People have this idea that everything in the bush is trying to kill you, but this took it to the next level. I just thought it was a classic Australia moment and had to share it."
