Dintlha
This snake is known to warm up in the burrows of wedge-tailed shearwater seabirds.1
A single animal was found in Devonport, New Zealand, in 2011 and again in January 2025, far outside its usual range. It died shortly after being taken to Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium.1
Moving between water and land exposes it to rapid temperature changes, so it often seeks shade from direct sunlight.1
