I was at the zoo this weekend and neglected to take my camera. Of course, the reptile house just had to have a new snake on display and I had no camera. I headed back today to take a picture of it. I failed miserably. The snake was coiled up far back into the enclosure. I only snapped one very lousy picture. It is a very cool snake though. It is called a Mang Mountain Viper. Apparently it is a newly described species. The San Diego Zoo is, I believe, the only zoo to display it. I think a zoo in Germany also has them. They are cool as hell. Anyway, I snapped a few other pictures while I was there. Enjoy!
This first picture is the elusive Mang Mountain Viper. I told you the picture was lousy! Through glass at high zoom and back in the corner. No bueno.
