Whew, thank goodness they had a Mexican field worker on the scene to so aptly key out that very dangerous gray-not-glossy-no-patterned grassvipcobpyboa!! In all seriousness though, I'm just wondering how much money is being wasted in the attempt at locating this 'possibly deadly' creature, which is probably little more than someone's escaped pet colubrid or something. With that description, if it's venomous it's an elapid, and then HI possibly has lots more problems than it knows, like underground venomous keepers or feral elapids. Of course, there are no elapids fitting that description found in Mexico...so I'm curious as to what species the man pointed out.
