	DPIW - Tiger Snake
		Tiger snakes habitually raid birds nests and have been found climbing trees to a height of 8 m.
		Tiger snakes are important predators of introduced rodent pests and readily enter the burrows of mice, rats and even rabbits in search of their quarry.
		Tiger snakes do not become more aggressive during the breeding season, but a male snake tracking a female may well have his mind on other things and may be more easily surprised or be in an unfamiliar environment.

	Treatment of Australian Snake Bites
		Snake identification is unreliable (unless the person works with snakes or was bitten in a zoo and they know what bit them!).
		Venom detection kits (instructions) may be helpful; if in doubt use tiger snake antivenom in Tasmania, tiger and brown snake antivenom in Victoria, and polyvalent antivenom in all other states and New Guinea or see the AVRU guidelines.
		In southern Victoria a combination of tiger (3000 units) and brown snake (1000 units) antivenoms can be used where the identity of the snake is unknown, and in Tasmania tiger snake antivenom alone (6000 units) is suitable.

	tiger snake venoms and snakebites
		Tiger snakes are highly venomous and are found in southern and eastern, but not inland mainland Australia, and also on southern offshore islands, including Tasmania.
		Tiger snake venom also contains potent procoagulants (toxins in venom that interfere with blood clotting, causing consumption of the clotting protein, fibrinogen; this causes defibrination, with non-clottable blood, putting victims at risk of major bleeding).
		Tiger snake venom causes generally minor local effects at the snakebite site, such as mild swelling, bruising and pain and does not contain necrotoxins, though local tissue necrosis does occasionally occur.

		Description: The tiger snake gets its name from the bands of dark color on its body that somewhat resemble the stripes of a tiger (they are not always visible, as in this picture).
		Venom is highly toxic, but the tiger snake's smaller poison glands prevent a large amount of venom from being injected.
		Tiger snake venom was one of the first venoms to be studied, and its antivenin was one of the first antivenins to be developed.
