Not to take any thunder away from your post, but this snake can be found all throughout South America (almost every country actually). From photos I have seen from friends and other literature, I would say this is possibly the world's "greenest" snake. Very pretty, and from people I know who have come across them, can be quite fiesty. I am sure it is fun to work with, and the bite is certainly worth avoiding.

I presume from your post you imported this individual from Surinam.
