White Bellied Mangrove Snake
Species: F. leucobalia Class: Reptilia Genus: Fordonia Phylum: Chordata Common Name: White Bellied Mangrove Snake Location: Coast of Northern Australia, Southeast Asia Habitat: Large numbers of these snakes frequent the edges of swamps, where they forage among the roots for food. Behavior: The Mangrove is a copy cat. When it goes to attack it reels back like a cobra and fuels its head then strikes forward and bites. Niche: Predator Description: A member of the subfamily of aquatic colubrids, the white-bellied mangrove snake has similar adaptations to those of the rest of its group, such as nostrils near the top of its head and upward-facing eyes. It is a rear-fanged snake and feeds mainly on crabs, which seem strongly affected by its venom, unlike frogs and mammals, which are not. Fish are also included in its diet. If alarmed, the snake will take refuge in a crab burrow. Insert non-formatted text here
