wym Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) The "paradise tree snake" or Chrysopelea paradisi, found in the forested parts of Thailand, doesn't actually fly, but it does have a pretty good handle on the controlled glide. The snakes launch themselves off of trees and undulate in midair. From a 33-foot-high jump the snakes can cover another 33 feet of distance.

Thongkorn Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I have seen one that looked like one in Pattaya, it fell out of a tree opposite the police station on beach road. It just climbed back up again , people just stood back and watched it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
