The reason for this inconsistency is not hard to understand. While hitting a golf swing, the golfer gets the entire golf course as their play area; giving them ample opportunities to correct their errors later on.

Snakes such as pythons are able to dislocate their jaw in order to swallow food (and golf balls) which are larger than their head. This allows them to consume their prey whole without chewing or tearing it up into smaller pieces like other animals. The wildlife sanctuary treats many native Australian animals each year. Often these animals have been injured during an encounter with a lawnmower, car, dog or cat. During Summer there are frequently bushfire victims that need attention. Sanctuaries and wildlife shelters receive a little money from government bodies, but are largely dependent upon donations to treat and rehabilitate wild
