EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Kim Taylor and Jane Burton, courtesy of Universal Images Group (UIG), showcases the mesmerizing beauty and predatory behavior of a Mangrove Snake. With its vivid black and yellow coloring, this snake immediately catches the eye. The striking contrast between these bold colors serves as a warning to potential prey, signaling danger ahead. In this studio shot, we witness the snake's aggressive nature as it opens its mouth wide in preparation to strike at its unsuspecting prey. Interestingly, unlike most snakes whose fangs are located at the front of their mouths, the Mangrove Snake's fangs are positioned towards the back. This unique adaptation allows for a more efficient delivery of venom when attacking. As part of the Squamata order and Serpentes suborder, this one-of-a-kind reptile belongs to the Colubridae family known for their diverse range of species. While many colubrids are non-venomous, this particular species is highly poisonous due to its venemous fangs. The scaley texture on its body adds an extra layer of intrigue to this already fascinating creature. Boiga dendrophila or commonly known as Mangrove Snake is just one example among numerous animal species that inhabit our planet. Without mentioning any commercial use associated with it, let yourself be captivated by this incredible photograph that perfectly captures both the beauty and ferocity found within nature's realm.
