Oriental whip snake is a slim and gentle arboreal snake


The Oriental Whip Snake prefers forest edge habitats or their equivalent including parklands, wooded residential areas and rural agricultural areas. It is most commonly encountered whilst sunning itself on secondary growth along the forest edge. I found it sleeping by a tall bush beside a lake.
