Guitar God Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 It doesn't look like any I'm familiar with but you could try here: http://www.thailandsnakes.com/thailand-snake-identification-form/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmybcool Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 It sure is a pretty snake. Got to admit I give all snakes in Thailand a wide berth. I have no fear of snakes at home. I've evicted 5 foot rattlesnakes from my garage with nothing more than a long stick. But snakes in thailand can kill you and I'm too young and good looking to die. Well, OK too good looking.

AyG Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) I'm no expert, but could it be Bocourt's Water Snake Enhydris bocourti? Edited January 8, 2014 by AyG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steffi Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I believe it's a kind of keelback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrjlh Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) I think it is a "Cat Snake". There are more than 15 types. Color patterns vary greatly. The eyes are large on the side of the head. The photo slightly obscures the head so it's difficult to tell for sure. That's my guess. It could be a keel back but the head didn't look right to me. Got a better picture?
