Lalor said eastern brown snakes don't normally attack humans, but the bedroom situation was uniquely dangerous. "Fortunately these guys have no interest in humans and are only dangerous when interacted with, however in a situation like this the outcome could have been unfavorable," he wrote. Lalor said he relocated the snake to a more suitable habitat away from human residences.
