  • Smooth, glossy scales1
  • Sharply contrasting black and white rings that continue right around the body1
  • A short tail with a blunt tip, unlike other elapid snakes1
  • Usually 50 to 60 cm long including the tail1

Bandy-bandy venom is weak, and its effects are mostly limited to the area around the bite. Its mouth is small and it is not aggressive, so it rarely bites people.1

Blind snakes can be bigger than the bandy-bandy that eats them. Bandy-bandies have been seen with prey sticking out of their mouths while they slowly digest it.1

2

Bandy-bandies can follow the chemical trail of a blind snake. In one study they followed trails for an average of 0.93 metres, and some followed a full 1.4-metre trail.1

3

Bandy-bandies are also called hoop snakes because of their striking rings.1

4

Females are much larger than males. In one study, the mean snout-vent length was 54.4 cm for females and 39.2 cm for males.1

5

Unlike other elapid snakes, the bandy-bandy has a blunt tail tip.1
