Kenyan Snake Exhibit

This is a Puff Adder, Africa’s most dangerous snake. We will stay away from him.

This is a Nile monitor lizard. He is harmless unless you are a small bird or a slug. But he is longer than we are, so we’ll stay away from him too.

These are African Rock Pythons. They are not venomous, they are constrictors. The stripy ones are young, the blacker ones are old. They can grow to over 5X as long as us and kill mammals bigger than us. But we know people that have them as pets at home. We’ll still stay away from the wild ones.

This is a gaboon viper. They are friendly and don’t bite much. But if they do you are in trouble, their venom is super deadly.

image

This is a green mamba. He also has really nasty venom.

image

This is a red spitting cobra. He has super toxic venom that he likes to spit in your eyes. We hopefully won’t see any of these that aren’t behind glass.

This is a nile crocodile. We might just stay in the truck for two months.
