The red-tailed racer snake, scientifically known as Gonyosoma oxycephalum, is a striking reptile native to Southeast Asia, including Borneo Island. Known for its vibrant colouration and sleek body, this snake is easily recognizable. Typically ranging in length from 4 to 6 feet, the red-tailed racer boasts a slender, elongated body that allows it to navigate through its arboreal habitat with ease. Its coloration varies from green to blue-green, complemented by a distinctive red or reddish-brown tail, which gives this species its common name. The head is narrow and pointed, perfectly adapted for slipping through thick foliage while searching for prey. |
