EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Kim Taylor and Jane Burton from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are presented with the mesmerizing beauty of a Mangrove snake. With its striking black and yellow stripes, this serpent immediately catches our attention. The forked tongue flickering out of the notch in its upper jaw, just above its mouth, adds an element of intrigue to the image. The studio shot allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this magnificent creature. Its scales glisten under the lights, showcasing the reptile's remarkable adaptation for survival in its natural habitat. As part of the Squamata order and Serpentes suborder, these snakes belong to one animal species known for their unique characteristics. The vibrant yellow stripes contrasting against the deep black coloration make for a visually stunning display. However, it is important to note that despite their captivating appearance, some members of Boiga dendrophila can be venomous. This photograph serves as a reminder of nature's diversity and showcases the incredible beauty found within reptiles like mangrove snakes. It invites us into their world while simultaneously reminding us to appreciate them from a safe distance
