Bronzeback Snake

Dendrelaphis pictus

Description:

I find these snakes very calm and shy although they come with a not so nice odour. They grow up to one meter in length and feed on small lizards and frogs. Actually what I'm holding are captive breed and I'm about to re-introduce them to their natural world as they are old enough to survive. They love to stay on bushes and sleep on tree tops at night.

Habitat:

Tropical forest/ Cultivated land and populated areas.

Hi shekainah d. alaban!
This is a lovely spotting and you are doing a very good job of re-introducing these beautiful snakes to their natural world. I request you to kindly add a cropped image where the organism is visible rather than the human for the first pic.Thank you in advance for your understanding :-)
