Ahaetulla prasina, oriental whip snake

Ahaetulla prasina, commonly known as the Asian vine snake or the Oriental whipsnake, is a widespread species of tree snake found in South Asia and Southeast Asia.

This elegant snake is arboreal and lives in bushes and trees. It is common in many of our wild places, including urban gardens and coastal areas. But is it well camouflaged and often overlooked as a green vine. Indeed, it is also called the Green vine snake. It is active during the day as well as at night. It is found throughout Southeast Asia. It was previously known as Dryophis prasinus.
