Constrictor Snake

emperor snake, boa, snake, Snake, Constrictor

This large snake has a thick, muscular body and dull green scales decorated with dirty brown stripes.

Be they jungle-dwelling pythons or swamp-dwelling boas like the anaconda, constrictor snakes are among the most deadly predatory animals of the tropical wilds. Fortunately, these large snakes are relatively passive, save for when they are preparing to shed their skins or are particularly hungry. Nevertheless, the sinuous creatures are held in fear by many societies who often ascribe fiendish qualities to them.
