Re: is this snake poisonus?
Where was the snake found? Country...region...that sort of thing. It looks like some sort of sand boa to me, and if so, is certainly not venomous. Even if it were...why kill it? Just let it go somewhere away from someone's home.
Re: is this snake poisonus?
Looks like a sand boa to me based on pattern and body.
Re: is this snake poisonus?
I was thinking sand boa as well but I couldn't figure out where in the US it could have been found.
Re: is this snake poisonus?
i have never seen a snake like that before. it definitely looks like some sort of burrowing boa like a sand boa just like the others said. where was it found??
Re: is this snake poisonus?
Johar - don't you live in Malaysia?
Re: is this snake poisonus?
I'm going with Arabian Sand Boa. Regardless, it is almost definitely in the Erycine family and not poisionous.
Or I could be totally wrong! :)
Re: is this snake poisonus?
sorry guys, i forgot to say where im from
im from kuwait, if some of you dont know, its in the middle east.
its been found in the desert. actually near the farms, close to the borders with saudia arabia.. maybe 50 kms or something.
and btw.
people are afraid of what they dont know :)
i didnt let him kill it, instead i set it free where it belongs :)
but i will definately tell him that its not, so he wouldn't kill one in the future
thanx.
if any of you guys have some reference please pm the link
Re: is this snake poisonus?
Rock on! I'm sticking with Arabian Sand Boa.
Re: is this snake poisonus?
What a lovely little snake. I'm glad you didn't let your uncle kill it so needlessly.
