So nice to see snakes being so well cared for over there.
My dad lived in Thailand for about 5 years and unfortunately every animal or reptile display we saw when we went to visit was a disgusting display of exploitation and animal cruelty.
Thankyou so much for sharing such lovely snaps.

the beautiful pit-viper - it is Trimeresurus kanburiensis - Kanburi Palm viper /quite rare/

The Pit Viper is a White Lipped ( Trimeresurus albolabris albolabris), T. kanburiensis are brown / olive green heavily patterned in zigzagging bands.

that green dude with the tiny body (glider snake?) is amazing, you think it would have to drag it's head! lol

Thats actually a Oriental Whip Snake - Ahaetulla prasina, sometimes also called a Vine Snake

Wicked photos, you wouldn't want to confuse that white lipped viper for a GTP would you?
