Here is beauty that I recently acquired which belongs to a large species of bush snakes in Africa and are commonly termed green snakes but unlike our rough and smooth green snakes, these eat frogs, lizards, and rodents and are usually prowling quickly as racers to find food. This particular species is Philothamnus punctatus and has a belly full of tree frogs. Some have a unique blueish color to them. This is also not rear fanged and harmless. Her head looks similiar to a coachwhips and other racers.
