Tropidolaemus wagleri – Wagler’s Pit Viper
The Wagler’s Pit Viper (Tropidolaemus wagleri), also known as the Temple Viper, is one of Thailand’s most beautiful viper species. And the sexual dimorphism (difference in characteristics between the two sexes) is unbelievable. The adult female looks like a complete different species from the adult male.
More details will follow once I have more time on my hands (which could take a while), but here follow some images to keep you entertained.
