The Department of Conservation (DoC) is warning New Zealanders not to touch any snakes that may wash up on the beach - even if they look dead.
The warning comes as two yellow-bellied sea snakes were found in less than ten days - one in Doubtless Bay last Sunday and the other in Tutukaka on Monday.

Highly venomous yellow-bellied sea snake found in Doubtless Bay

The person who found the snake, Samantha Cooper, posted footage of it to Facebook on Sunday, saying she didn't even know Aotearoa had snakes.
"We tried to put it back in the ocean but it kept swimming back on to the sand. The tide is on its way out and I was worried about kids and dogs safety," she wrote.
"Also cars drive on Tokerau so it was most probably [going to] get squished. I gave the snake to DoC."
DoC says like this one, most sightings of the snakes are in the north-eastern parts of the country - though they have been seen as far south as the Cook Strait.
