| rdfs:comment | - Hoop Snakes are monsters that live in the Tar Swamp area of Fossil Island. They can be stunned using a weapon's crush option (or being unarmed), allowing the player to pick up the stunned hoop snake. From the inventory, snakes can be rolled in a direction, mainly used for stunning tar monsters.
- Hoop snakes can be rolled in any direction, primarily to stun tar monsters. File:Rolling hoop snake.gif
- Australia is home to millions of species capable of eradicating the human race (and lots of other races) from the face of this planet and the planet from which our alien ancestors came. Perhaps the most dangerous of all (with the obvious exception of the Drop Bear) is the Hoop Snake. However, ironically, the snake, while it exists in Australia, is not Australian. Although many Australians claim otherwise, it is important to bear in mind that Australians are all big fat liars.
- The Hoop Snake is so named due to its very unique method of locomotion. They catch their tail in their mouths, forming a large circle, and roll rapidly downhill, either to escape nearby predators, or to attack possible predators at the bottom of the hill, hoping to injure them so they may escape in the confusion. The snake fields mostly on small mammals, swallowing their prey whole, although they are a venomous snake.

In this form, the Hoop Snake greatly resembles the Ouroboros from Ancient Greek and Egyptian mythology. The Hoop Snake is referenced in a 1784 letter published in the Tour in the U.S.A., reprinted below.

| abstract | - The Hoop Snake is so named due to its very unique method of locomotion. They catch their tail in their mouths, forming a large circle, and roll rapidly downhill. This allows them to either to escape nearby predators or to attack possible predators at the bottom of the hill, hoping to cause injury so they may escape in the confusion. The snake feeds mostly on small mammals, swallowing their prey whole, although they are a venomous snake. The hoop snake breeds in late April. Male snakes compete in exhibitions of rolling to attract females. Females lay clutches of 10 to 20 eggs in late June, which hatch in early fall.

"As other serpents crawl upon their bellies, so can this; but he has another method of moving peculiar to his own species, which he always adopts when he is in eager pursuit of his prey; he throws himself into a circle, running rapidly around, advancing like a hoop, with his tail arising and pointed forward in the circle, by which he is always in the ready position of striking. "It is observed that they only make use of this method in attacking; for when they flee from their enemy they go upon their bellies, like other serpents. From the above circumstance, peculiar to themselves, they have also derived the appellation of hoop snakes."
