Tree Snake

Dendrelaphis punctulata

Description:

When you look at a bird it is always good to remember that birds evolved from dinosaurs and that you are looking at a dinosaur. When you see a snake then, you are looking at a Mosasaur, a giant sea reptile that ruled the oceans. You can also imagine the 50 foot long snake (about 5 cars long) that ate crocodiles, and if you see this snake, you may be lucky and see one with a beautiful blue colour.
