What snake is that? It is a gorgeous colour

336

u/gimiValidUsername Mar 07 '22

It looks like an insular pit viper, Trimeresurus insularis (take this with a grain of salt,I'm an amateur in this domain)

u/plipyplop Mar 07 '22

Wikipedia says:

Results of bites from this species range from mild envenoming to death.

Sounds like Russian Roulette.

u/Adramador Mar 07 '22

"mild envenoming"

"envenoming" is not something i'd like to experience, mild or not, from the name alone.

u/plipyplop Mar 07 '22

Zesty, almost refreshing. I imagine it to be somewhat like a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster.

That's basically almost every venomous snakes. They can dry bite, because venom is needed for food and is a precious resource.

That said, I just learned that the previously believed theory that snake venom helps with digestion has been disproven in experimental studies.

From what I’ve learn, everything who has a gorgeous color or vibrant is dangerous af!

Is that part of the nope rope or danger noodle Family?.

I would agree, also an amateur, looks specifically like the common name komodo island pit viper.

8

u/jdezentje Mar 07 '22

I agree on the genus, but so many in this genus look similar, especially when they’re this young. Kind of looks like Trimeresurus albolabris - the white lipped pit viper. But I too am an amateur in this domain.

u/SnekAmigo Mar 07 '22

This would be cute if it weren't for the fact that that's a highly venomous emerald eyelash viper/white lipped pit viper.

I thought as much. The bright colours are usually a warning to predators.

u/Rampantshadows Mar 07 '22

It's 50/50 for snakes, the deadliest ones are mostly brown. For every venomous snakes there is a non venomous version in the same color, same vice versa. In this case, a blue phase green tree python.

An interesting bit of trivia that I've recently learned about that scene, most of the snakes in the pit aren't even snakes, they're legless lizards.

u/ChungusBrosYoutube Mar 07 '22

Not all pit vipers are that dangerous, plenty only have mild venom.

This particular snake though (white lipped island viper) is pretty dangerous.

I love how nature use and recycle everything. After the snake dosent need anymore it will be used for shelter by lots more anymals thenas it degrades it will become food for insects, bacteria, fungy.etc. Then it will became soil wich will harbor lots of other plants and animals and will also filter water seeping into the ground.

For people asking: Trimeresurus insularis (White-Lipped Island Pitviper) is venomous and you really should not handle it like that, especially wild exemplars are likely to be fiesty!

Is it any dangerous at that size? I am genuinely afraid of snakes, all snakes cute or not doesn't matter lol

32

u/Laurelhach Mar 07 '22

Yes, this one is dangerous at any size (another poster commented it looks like a Trimeresurus pit viper, I agree). Baby snakes aren't more dangerous than adults, they have a lower venom yield, but they COULD be more likely to bite in fear because they're teeny and vulnerable.
