The Saint Lucia lancehead is a pit viper, a type of snake that can sense heat. It lives only on the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia, in the Lesser Antilles. It is endangered, so it matters a great deal to conservation.1

Eziokwu

The only place outside Saint Lucia where these snakes are kept is the Kentucky Reptile Zoo.1

Today it is limited to two areas of the island, which is why it is so threatened.1

It is classed as endangered, meaning it faces a high risk of extinction in the wild.1
