Description

The warped person wearing blue in the eye is me. Behind me is the entrance to the zoo.

This is a Mole Snake handled by keeper.
This snake is inoffensive, non-venomous and will always attempt to move off if encountered. This species is a major predator of mice, rats and mole-rats and thus a very useful species to have in agricultural and urban areas.

A definite favorite for me Candace. This is award winning work and I hope to see you get some gold for it. The reflection is incredible and I am amazed at the clarity. You got the color and the details of the snake so perfect and that textured background just makes it all stand out. #11408522
