    Re: Guess the baby colubrid.........

    Recap of the clues:

    1. Look a the type of viper it mimics - that will give you the locale.
    2. Susan's Shirts - the species name.
    3. Think of the name of the dragon.......part of the common name.
    4. mmmmm, fruit. Also part of the local common name.
    5. SD Zoo has a pair - that recently bred.

    Unfortunately it is NOT a false eyelash viper. It is a pity that the person taking the picture didn't know what it was.

    Telescopus is a rear-fanged venomous snake from Africa. This snake is not rear-fanged and is not from Africa.
