Yellow Lipped Sea Krait Laticauda Colubrina
Facts~
Have over five different names! Which include of Banded Sea Krait, Colubrine sea snake, yellow lipped sea snake and more!
It’s key characteristic is it’s flattened tail which acts like a paddle helping it swim through the water.
They can only move at one 5th of the speed on land than it can in water.
It spends an equal amount of time on sea than in water unlike most other sea snakes and kraits which cannot move on land at all.
They eat eels and small fish and are preyed upon by sharks, larger fish and birds whilst on land.
They can fool predators from the movement of their tail into thinking it is their head.
The venom makes it one of the most lethal creature of the sea being 10x more potent than a rattle snake.
Like turtle it returns to land to lay eggs.
They have a salt gland under their tongue which removes salt absorbed from the sea.
They also have the ability to breathe through their lungs and their skin.
Out of respect for the best black and yellow snake, Deceit Sanders, I shall present pictures of some others.
A Yellow-bellied sea snake.
A Speckled king snake.
A Mangrove (genus Boiga)
A Tiger snake.
And a banded krait.
