This kind of snake has one of the most impressive defensive displays!
It actually took some time to get this snake to stay put. It kept wanting to crawl away rather than "play" with us.
In this picture, you can see that we've just killed the snake...HAHAHA...Naw, it's just playing dead. If the scary hissing, body-flattening, and rank smell doesn't work, this kind of snake will flop over and try playing dead. |
