BruceBanner Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) Hi Everyone I was just wondering what type of snake this was. I found it in Hua Hin on a road near the beach. Looks like it had been run over by a car. Cheers. Edited February 23, 2011 by BruceBanner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VocalNeal Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) looks like It is or was a Chrysopelea_Ornata or Ornate Paradise Tree Snake, sometimes called a Golden Tree Snake, Ornate Flying Snake or Golden Flying Snake.

BruceBanner Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Thank you for the replies. I assume the snake must have fallen out of the tree next to the road just as a car was passing. Poor thing. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillies Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 here is a snake that crawled up behind me last month, can ID this one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhfarang Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 It's hard to tell for sure from that photo, but it looks like it might be a Malayan Pit Viper which is a very poisonous snake responsible for more bites in south Asia than any other snake.

It's hard to tell for sure from that photo, but it looks like it might be a Malayan Pit Viper which is a very poisonous snake responsible for more bites in south Asia than any other snake. Wrong. The snake that phillies is asking about is a brown kukri snake. My dogs killed one last week. http://www.thailandsnakes.com/non-venomous/brown-kukri-snake-non-venomous-not-dangerous/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
