Snake 'springs' into defence!

A short video showing the way in which the Cross-marked whip snake defends itself. For more pictures of this snake as well as other reptiles of Southern Africa, please visit my photography page at deanboshoff.wix.com/deanboshoff

Awww, how cool are you, to leave him be when he was already frightened. It was much more fun to watch him uncoil on his own when he felt safe. Thanks. I just subscribed:) (The cutest frog sent me here;)

"Is he gone?"

That moment your at a party, and someone you don't know starts talking to you.

A great little video. The light is just perfect for bringing out the details of the snake's skin and the shadows give extra clarity to the winding curves of the snake's body. The mountain scene behind is also quite beautiful. I wouldn't mind living there myself!

[@meowtasticgamer8750]
