Description

These lithe snakes like to frequent the shallow waters of tropical seas. Their 4-foot-long, blue-green bodies easily blend into the water where they lurk to ambush prey. Sea snakes are highly venomous but often choose not to inject their venom when biting, so encounters with them rarely result in fatalities.

Tales speak of massive sea snakes that swim in deeper waters and stalk ships, waiting for sailors to fall overboard or even climbing over the side to snatch them from the deck.

Snakes of some variety thrive in every non-arctic ecosystem, each with their own particular hunting patterns and defense mechanisms.
