Info from Licensor: "Bangor is a 130-year-old family farm and vineyard located in Dunalley, Tasmania, Australia. Matt and Vanessa are the 5th generation to live and work on the property. 80 % of the farm is native forest and grasslands, so we have lots of Tasmanian wildlife such as Tasmanian devils, kangaroos, wallabies and wombats. The snake in the video is a tiger snake, and these are a regular sight around the farm. They spend most of their time on the ground, and are even known to climb small trees and shrubs occasionally. But a high-wire act along the fence definitely seems to be a unique ability! I saw the snake as I was moving sheep on the farm. I've never seen one climbing anything, let alone along the top of a wire fence! It was definitely a fascinating thing to see with such great poise and balance."
