Thelotornis usambaricus

.

Thelotornis usambaricus is a species of venomous vine snake found in the Usambara Mountains of Tanzania. This snake is known for its slender body and arboreal lifestyle, often found in trees and bushes. They prey on small vertebrates and insects, using their venom to immobilize their prey. Thelotornis usambaricus is camouflaged to blend into its forest habitat, making it a challenge to spot. While their venom is potent, they are not considered to be a significant threat to humans. They are very reluctant to bite.
