| Thailands Zoos and animals The forum to tell us about your visits to the tiger temples in Kanchanaburi or the tiger zoo in Sri Racha, crocodile farms in Pattaya & Bangkok, Thai elephant kraals in Ayutthaya & Phuket, Panda bears in Chiang Mai zoo. Thailand has many zoo's and wildlife sanctuaries and quite often you can get the oppurtunity to eat crocodile eggs, or emu steaks and many other exoctic dishes, so post the pictures and videos to share here. |

   | Firstly, let me send my sadness about the birds that have perished. Secondly, the snake with a full belly, is a Boiga cyanea - Common name: Green catsnake. They are primarily arboreal, and eat lizards, eggs and birds. Let me commend you for letting it loose, although it created a trauma at the time. Most people will beat it over the head with something, like a shovel. Just for reference, the 'catsnake' does possess a very toxic venom. Being rear-fanged, it is unlikely that a bite will produce any reaction. It would be difficult for a human to be envenomated. If you don't mind revealing, where are you located in Thailand? Most of this species seems to be mainly on the islands, and not the mainland. Sorry, I just saw your location was Phuket!
