The Argentinian coral snake is a venomous snake that lives in central South America, especially the Dry Chaco region. It is large for its group, and its bright red, white and black rings make it easy to spot. Its venom is powerful, so it is important to know what it looks like and to give it plenty of room.1

  • The white rings are narrow, about three scales wide, and the scales have black tips.1
  • Adults usually measure 70 to 90 cm, including the tail.1
