AUSTRALIA (Web Desk) - A snake catcher in Queensland, Australia, responded to a home to help with an unusual situation -- a 4-foot snake in the toilet.

Drew Godfrey of Hervey Bay Snake Catchers said his wife and fellow snake catcher, Katie Airey, responded to a Harvey Bay home recently where the owners found a snake in the bowl of their toilet.

"They went to use the bathroom and found it when they lifted the toilet seat," Godfrey told Newsweek. "I d assume they were quite surprised."

A video posted to the snake catching business  YouTube channel shows Airey removing the 4-foot common tree snake from the commode. Godfrey said the snake is not a dangerous species.

"They are very inquisitive and friendly towards people," Godfrey said.
