Rhombic Egg Eater (Dasypeltis scabra) Defense strategy -

This snake may look scary, but this is really just a scare tactic. It has little or no teeth and lives off eating eggs. It looks like the Night Adder which is venomous, it sounds like a puff adder, it has the inner mouth colour of a Mamba and the attitude of a Cobra... But it is all a front.

These are incredible snakes, they really try a lot to look like they are mean, tough and dangerous, but they are some of the most harmless ones we have.

PS. Sorry about the sound, the waves from the ocean was completely overpowering the sound from the snake!

Regards,
Monk

Pretending he is venomous. Defensive adaption. Fake it until you make it.
