A couple of Central Coast locals safely on their way
After being called out to capture a Green Tree Snake from a garage in Mardi, it was time the following morning to release both the Green Tree Snake and a Diamond Python from another recent call-out.
Both snakes were safely relocated into suitable habitat away from the immediate risks that led to their removal.
If you come across a snake on your property, give it space and get in touch for advice or relocation.

Our Pygmy Possum Project at Allowed to Grow Old Foundation is already producing some great results.
As part of the ongoing habitat works, we’ve been creating a number of small hollows specifically suited to Eastern Pygmy Possums. Some have been carved into suitable living trees using the Hollowhog Piglet, while others have been created from salvaged timber and attached to trees throughout the property.
And the best part two of these created hollows are already being used by Eastern Pygmy Possums!
The project will continue to expand the amount of suitable habitat available across the property, while cameras and surveys allow us to monitor how quickly these new hollows are discovered and used.
We’re looking forward to seeing how occupancy increases as the project continues.
If you’d like to know how we can create and improve wildlife habitat on your property, get in contact with Coastal Wildlife Management.

Diamond Python De-Ticking & a Bit of a Yarn
I was called out tonight to a Diamond Python that was reportedly covered in ticks and in a pretty bad way.
Once I arrived and gave him a proper assessment, things weren’t nearly as bad as first thought. He turned out to be a very healthy Diamond Python with a handful of ticks around his face. A quick de-tick and check-over, and this fella will be on his way again tomorrow morning.
A good reminder that if you come across a snake, please never attempt to handle it yourself.
If the snake, yourself or your pets are in immediate danger, contact a licensed and insured snake catcher for assistance.
And remember not every snake needs to be relocated. Plenty of snakes are perfectly fine to remain on your property once you’ve had a little advice, reassurance and a better understanding of what the animal is doing there.

Juvenile Marsh Snake Relocation

This little Marsh Snake was discovered by a worker while doing some gardening and was safely relocated.

Judging by its size, this juvenile is likely one of last season’s young. Marsh Snakes are mildly venomous but generally pose little threat when left alone and given space.

This little snake had an old injury towards the lower half of its body, most likely from a previous predator encounter. Thankfully, the injury had healed well, the snake was in great condition and moving normally, so it was released into a quieter, suitable patch of habitat away from the work area.

If you come across a snake, stay calm, keep your distance and call a licensed and insured snake catcher for relocation or advice.

One of the trickier Red-bellied Black Snake captures!
It’s hard to tell from the video just how tight and close this snake actually was to me while I was trying to safely remove it from underneath this van in a busy shopping centre car park.
The snake had woven itself through the bodywork, giving me very few safe grab opportunities while giving it plenty of opportunities to bite. There was almost no room to manoeuvre a snake hook either.
This Red-bellied Black Snake was quite bold and came extremely close several times, but if there isn’t a safe grab, you don’t take it.
After around an hour of patiently working with it, the snake disappeared completely into the bodywork. I eventually located it tucked up behind the tail-light assembly. Luckily, I knew that section could be removed, which finally gave me the access I needed to safely secure the snake.
The full rescue took around 1.5 hours, but the snake was successfully removed without injury and relocated to suitable habitat.
The video is a little longer than my usual posts, but if you enjoy a tense wildlife rescue, this one is worth sticking around for!
If you find a snake on your property, vehicle or workplace, don’t attempt to catch it yourself call a licensed and insured snake catcher.

Diamond Python Relocation – Terrigal

Another Diamond Python safely relocated today, this time from inside a home in Terrigal.

When I arrived, he was sitting in the window waiting for me!
During the relocation I noticed he had a few older injuries along his back, so I gave him a thorough assessment before deciding what to do next. Thankfully, the injuries were healing well, he had good movement and body condition, and there was nothing stopping him from continuing life in the wild.
He was safely released into suitable habitat where he should have minimal interaction with people and can get back to doing what Diamond Pythons do best.

If you find a snake in or around your home, always call a licensed and insured snake catcher.
That’s me

Last night while conducting nocturnal wildlife surveys at the Allowed to Grow Old Foundation, I captured some incredible footage of a family of Sugar Gliders feeding on Bogong Moths in a flowering bottlebrush.
Using the HIKMICRO Condor 2.0, I was able to get some awesome close-up footage before they became comfortable enough with my presence for me to film them under red light with my phone.
With large numbers of Bogong Moths currently being blown outside their usual range, it was great to see that they’re still providing a valuable food source for our native wildlife.
It’s encounters like this that show just how connected our ecosystems really are.

A call-out to Glenning Valley today after some homeowners came across a snake while cleaning up a pile of rubble.
They did exactly the right thing, stopped what they were doing and called a licensed snake catcher. On arrival, I carefully worked through the rubble and located the culprit: a juvenile Yellow-faced Whip Snake, a mildly venomous elapid.
While checking through the remaining rubble to make sure the area was safe to continue working in, I also uncovered a gravid female Sydney Funnel-web Spider 🕷️
She was safely collected and will be sent off to to take part in the venom collection program.
A good reminder that piles of timber, rocks and building materials can provide excellent shelter for all sorts of wildlife. If you come across a snake while cleaning up around your property, keep your distance and give a licensed snake catcher a call.

4 Hollows 14 Eastern Rosella Eggs in just 50m

This is just the beginning of what's possible using the .

These hollows were carved into living trees using the Hollowhog and are already providing valuable nesting habitat for native wildlife.
With natural hollows disappearing from our landscapes, this shows just how valuable targeted habitat creation can be — and this is only the beginning of what’s possible.
Whether it’s a large conservation project or creating habitat in your own backyard, Coastal Wildlife Management can help.

Habitat hollow update!
The Corymbia torelliana hollows are absolutely pumping with wildlife!
We currently have an incredible 14 eggs across 4 created hollows, along with a huge amount of activity from hollow-nesting wildlife using and investigating the other hollows we've created.
What makes this project particularly interesting is that Corymbia torelliana can be considered an environmental w**d outside its natural range. Rather than simply removing these established trees, this managed group has been retained alive and growing, while we create habitat hollows within suitable sections of the trees.
It’s a great example of how even a pest plant species can still be managed in a way that provides genuine value for native wildlife.
With natural tree hollows taking decades sometimes well over a century to develop, creating additional hollows can provide breeding and shelter opportunities now.
And judging by 14 eggs in just 4 hollows, the wildlife certainly seems to approve!
