kufanelekile ukwazi

Iinyaniso

Its snout is a leaf-shaped or pointed appendage whose function is unknown, though it also helps the snake blend in as camouflage.1

Males and females look very different, a feature called sexual dimorphism, and this species is known for having an unusually high level of it.1

Its swaying and hooding, along with its camouflage, may let it look like a vine moving in the wind.1

It often hangs straight down from a branch when resting, which is an unusual resting behaviour.1
