Their tail is for hanging from? Really? I defy you to find supportive text of that. For use as support, sure, for anchorage, yeah, but hanging? I don't think so. Just because a snake is arboreal does not mean that it hangs suspended from trees by the last 3 inches of its tail. That's a ridiculous argument. And besides, the snake in your pic is not strictly arboreal...
