Emerald Tree Boa - Striking Green Arboreal Python Species #32658 (License: Personal Use)

The emerald tree boa (Corallus caninus) displays iridescent green dorsal scales with a striking white or cream-colored zigzag dorsal stripe, and its head features large, heat-sensing labial pits. Native to the Amazon Basin, it spends most of its life in trees, hunting birds and small mammals at night using constriction. Its prehensile tail and muscular body allow it to hang motionless for hours while ambushing prey.
