Iinyaniso

Western internet users have humorously nicknamed it the "judgmental shoelace", because of its long, thin body and narrowed-looking eyes.1

Its horizontal pupils are very unusual among snakes.1

Its name comes from an old Sinhalese belief that it plucks out human eyes. A Portuguese traveller first reported this belief in 1685.1

It hunts by camouflage, slowly swaying to look like a branch.1

A female at London Zoo, kept in isolation from August 1885, gave birth in August 1888.1
