One of the most popular snake shots on my flickr-site...


Yellow Mamba in a Tree by K3ntFIN, on Flickr


Are you sure that's a Yellow Mamba? I thought they only comes in Black & Green.
 ;D Anyway... She's a beauty...


Not 100% sure, but that's what I remember the sign saying. I need to go back to this reptilian zoo and check these out again, especially that I now know how to better control my camera.  :D

It is not a mamba, thats for sure. It should be a palm pit viper of the genus Bothriechis
Diego


Thanks! I shall update the description.

That's a king cobra right?
I wouldn't sleep easy at night knowing one is on the loose nearby...

Now this is MY kind of thread!  :)  I'm a HUGE animal lover and my passion lies with reptiles, and more specifically with boa constrictors.  I've been keeping them for 12-ish years now and have been breeding them for 5.  Here are a few from the collection.  No particular order at all.

No it is a rat snake (Ptyas mucosus). It is harmless and feeds on small animals and birds.

A Rattlesnake (?) at the Zoo Zurich by SwissBear85 (thats me).

Shot with the sigma 150mm macro

Now... where is that TS150mm with macro capabilities? I quite dislike this little sharp area near both borders ;)

I must admit, the picture is not mine, it is from Norbert Flauger in Venezuela, who allowed me to show it on my server. The complete galery and link to his bugparadise can be seen here ... http://www.wackel3d.de/gallerienliste.aspx?kategorie=7c59ec27-ac58-4282-b6c2-0a0fc8342d27&gallerie=bcb7a70f-a1cd-496d-a683-ea9e568b7522

Enjoy!
