No Withering Vine
A green Asian vine snake (Ahaetulla nasuta), also known as a long-nosed whip snake, is well camouflaged in the lush foliage of Agumbe, a rain forest in Karnataka, India. The reptile’s head, slightly broader than its body and pointed at the nose, resembles the shape of a leaf, allowing it to remain well hidden in its verdant habitat.
