    An Australian domestic flight was delayed for two hours after a stowaway snake was found in the plane’s cargo hold, officials said on Wednesday.

    The snake was found on Tuesday as passengers were boarding Virgin Australia Flight VA337 at Melbourne Airport bound for Brisbane, according to snake catcher Mark Pelley.

    The snake turned out to be a harmless 60-centimeter (2-foot) green tree snake. But Pelly said he thought it could be venomous when he approached it in the darkened hold.

                  Why? Did they need to play the whole movie first before takeoff?

                        Guessing it could be venomous sounds pretty reasonable. Being locked in an enclosed space with an unknown Australian snake? No thanks.

                          Assuming you’re not Australian, if not that’s the best attempt at our accent I’ve seen in yonks.

                            I didn’t even know there were non-venomous snakes in Melbourne.
