Get to know the "black-tailed snake" from the Tone Ivory Wildlife Sanctuary forest.

Ptyas carinata is the longest Colubridae snake in the world, fully grown, capable of up to 4 meters long, non-venomous, colorful, and cobra-like patterns that confuse people often, with a rather fierce habit, when threatening to have a vertical neck spread and a rather loud wind.

Most are found in the south, but they are also distributed in other regions, such as the north (Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Tak Uttardit), the west, the east (He Tak Dao), mainly eaten food, with frogs, toads, mice, birds, and snakes (can also eat king cobra, if they are smaller).

Six species of haunted snakes can be found in Thailand.

1. Lion Snake, Ptyas korros

2. Ptyas mucosa

3. Black-tailed snake, Ptyas carinata as pictured

4. Gold lion snake (Ptyas fusca)

5. Green lion snake (Ptyas nigromarginata)

6. Green haunted snake (Ptyas multicinctus)
