Nice snake!! Is it a venomoid???

I took these pictures at a Reptile Zoo in Monroe, WA. They have a better collection than the Seattle Zoo. WA state law does not allow venomous reptiles (grandfathered in is allowed).

Although they have an excellent collection, all their snakes are venomoids - did not know that until I visited the place. (Btw, you made an astute observation - how did you know?) The owner takes the snakes (venomoids and non-venomous) to schools and teach kids about snakes and conservation. So there is some benefit to it, although one could argue that he could just use the non-venomous for demo and leave the venomous intact.

I have more pictures since photography is something that I enjoy! But I don't want to offend the forum by posting pictures of venomoids.

And no, although I love snakes don't have any! My close encounters in the wild were with an adult saw-scaled viper (Echis carinatus) which I nearly stepped on, free handling Green vine snake (Ahaetulla nasuta) - yes I was young and did not know better and occasional Naja naja sightings. Also, I have dived with two other types of sea snakes - the Olive sea snake (Aipysurus laevis) and the yellow lipped sea kraits (Laticauda colubrina). The attached picture is of a L. colubrina hiding amongst the mangrove trees. They were 10-12 of them in one tree hole. And there were many trees in that island. It was heaven.

WOW,it's realy?So terrible!
Also from earlier, Unleash Elements is a new instant-cast ability that has a different effect depending on which weapon enchant you currently has RS Gold. With Flametongue Weapon, it deals fire damage to the target and is supposed to Buy WOW Gold or to apply a 20 percent extra damage debuff on the target for your next fire spell. Unfortunately, this debuff does not seem to be working in the current beta build, which means I can't do any testing on Aion Gold, so it is unclear as to whether it will apply to the DOT portion of Flame Shock or not. Until then, we can't make any educated Cheap WOW Gold guesses as to whether this will be used on every cooldown, prior to a fire spell or some combination in between, and all these points will be moot if it changes to purely a direct damage spell.
