Africa is chock-full of deadly creatures with colorful names. The Boomslang is a snake that likes to sit in trees, presumably so it can bite you in the ear when you walk by. The one they showed was a bright, almost neon green. It was an amazingly beautiful reptile, which should be of some small consolation when it launches itself at your head, screaming. People at your funeral will comment on this.
It is a shame he died.
Yes, but what a lovely snake!
Indeed. Pity they could not remove it.
Frankly, if you have to die from a snake bite, it might as well be from an attractive snake. Would you rather get run over by a Ferrari or an AMC Gremlin? I thought so.
Next: More Africa!
