Kenyan sand boa
Gongylophis colubrinus
Woody is a male Kenyan Sand Boa born in 2018. Kenyan sand boas are species of snake with a thick, wormlike body, small head, small upward-angled eyes, vertical pupils, and an enlarged rostral scale. They are covered in extremely smooth scales, except for the tail, which has larger, rougher scales. Colouring is generally brown, grey, yellow, or orange with darker blotches and a pale white, cream, or pinkish belly. However, a pattern less form is known to exist.   Kenyan sand boas are native to arid and semi-arid environments in east Africa. They are nocturnal snakes and therefore most active at night, but they are irregularly active throughout the day to bask and hunt. Although categorized as fossorial, they are also known to occasionally climb trees.
