Red-bellied Black Snake in Lamington National Park

When I was studying abroad in Australia this fall, my program spent a week in the rainforests of Lamington National Park as a part of our terrestrial ecology course. When a friend and I were on our way back to our safari tent from a hike, we noticed a red-bellied black snake coiled up just off the side of the road.
