False Water Cobra (Hydrodynastes gigas)
Colubrid Corner
05/20/21 • 44 min
This episode talks about Hydrodynastes gigas, The False Water Cobra. The False water cobra is a rear-fanged venomous colubrid snake native to South America. The background color of a mature snake is olive green or brown, with dark spots and bands covering much of its body. The background coloring and banding generally become darker towards the end tail. This coloring gives the False water cobra effective camouflage in its natural rainforest environment. The ventral scales are yellow or brown, spotted with dark flecks that make three dotted lines that appear to merge towards the tail.

100 Flower Rat Snake (Elaphe moellendorffi)
Colubrid Corner
10/18/20 • 30 min
This week we explore a Colubrid species coveted by enthusiasts with a taste for the unique and large species of Rat Snakes, the 100 Flower Rat Snake (Elaphe moellendorffi ). From the redhead contrasted upon a typically green body dotted with flower reminiscent patches of pattern, this long and unique species of Rat Snake is considered to be among the elite lesser-known Colubrids. Reaching lengths of up to 8 feet, this snake is listed by the IUCN Red List as “VULNERABLE” with some downward trends in population. However, they do exist in the hobby and captive propagation does occur. This diurnal, large, and active snakes deserve the envy they induce in those fortunate enough to discover them and hopefully, this episode inspires the listener in the same way.
