What is a snake of a brown tree?

brown tree snake, boiga irregularis , is an arboreal snake, which means they spend most of their lives in trees or otherwise outside the ground. It measures up to 6.5 feet (2 m), with an average length of 4.5 feet (1.4 m). The brown tree snake is originally made of tropical and subtropical regions of Australia, Papua -Northwest Melanesian Islands. He was randomly introduced by Guam shortly after the end of World War II. One theory is that the snake was accidentally brought to Guam, along with the military equipment of military foundations on the islands of Admirality in Papua New Guinea. This theory is supported by the patterns of coloring and scale Guam Snakes, which are most similarly similar to those on the islands of Admirality. Until 2010, this invasion resulted in the demise of nine out of 12 populations of forest birds of the island, half of its lizard species and possibly some of its native species of bats. The threat of the remaining original type of island is proceeding. There is a population of this snake in your natural habitatNaturally controlled by disease, predation and competition. The same factors exist on Guam, but they occur at much lower speed and do not provide adequate population control.

Holy tree Snake also causes extensive economic problems on Guam and had a negative impact on the Guam's human population. Snakes tend to travel on electric lines on the island and cause frequent power outages. The venom of the brown tree is only slightly poisonous and is guided by large, remaining rear teeth instead of fang. This is not considered particularly dangerous for adults, because Snake has to chew its victim for some time before Venom will be able to penetrate the skin. This is more of a threat to human infants who have been known to suffer from respiratory arrests due to being built.

brown tree snake not only captivated its prey, but is also a constricge that its prey flesh firmly its prey firmly around its victim,until the victim dies due to lack of oxygen. The diet of a snake of a brown tree consists of birds, eggs, small mammals and small reptiles. This species is primarily night and spends daily hours curled in shaded tree canopies, shrubs or rot. This snake, albeit above all, arboreal, forage for food on the ground under the cover of darkness.
