A client of mine told me that he and a friend were threatened with
prosecution for hopping out of their car to look at a dead snake in
northern Queensland.
I was threatened similarly for taking a couple of dead snakes to my
son's class to teach the kids how to tell the difference between
venomous and non-venomous.
