Schultze's Blunt-headed Tree Snake

  Boiga schultzei          Boiga schultzei, commonly known as the Schultze's Blunt-headed Tree Snake and Schultze's Blunt-headed Cat Snake. This snake is endemic to Palawan, and of the three species of Boiga inhabiting the Palawan forests, this species is the least seen and photographed. Boiga schultzei found during a herping trip     This snake is nocturnal and mainly arboreal. Its body is long and thin, enabling it to bridge gaps between branches at a speed that would make other snakes tumble. It hunts for food and rests up on trees most of the time. Little is known about this species, but like most Boiga, this species is probably feeding on various species of small lizards, frogs, birds, and their eggs high up on trees.
