A woman in Australia found a deadly 3-foot tiger snake hiding in her Christmas tree over the weekend.
The venomous reptile was remarkably well camouflaged and could easily have been mistaken for tinsel.
The woman, who was identified only as Cheryl, called Barry Goldsmith (a.k.a. Snake Catcher Victoria) to her suburban Melbourne home on Sunday morning. He successfully trapped the serpent and later released it back into the wild.
