Ebituufu

Each year it returns to the same ambush site in time for the spring migration of birds.1

Studies suggest these snakes learn to improve their strike accuracy over time.1

It is shown on the 'snake flag' of Martinique, although that flag is now rarely used.1

It is one of only a few flags in the world that show a snake, along with the Gadsden flag and the Mexican flag.1
