In this episode:
I'm on the search for the Wagler's Pit Viper, sometimes known as the Temple Pit Viper or the Moon Snake ( Tropidolaemus wagleri ). It is a well known snake in South East Asia living in lowland rainforest. The Wagler's Pit Viper is venomous. However its temperament is really calm! I have already come across a male Wagler's Pit Viper, but the females look totally different, different colourations and much much larger. I want to find out why they look so different!

To find the Wagler's Pit Viper I search the mid canopy carefully. It turns out when I finally cross paths with the Female Wagler's Pit Viper she really is the most stunning looking snake in Asia... as far as the snakes I've seen so far anyway !!

I hope you enjoy :)

What Are Creature Features?
All creatures have evolved different tricks to survive in the wild places they call their homes! Each animal has an awesome story about how they look, what they eat and even how they move! Creature Features spotlight the stories behind these crazy cool adaptations.

The Science:
With over 1 Million animals on the IUCN Red List of Endangered Species, animal populations are in decline the world over. This is due to many reasons but what we know for sure is to keep the planet's amazing diversity of wildlife we need to learn as much as possible about where and how these creatures live their lives. Collating all the data we are gathering will help build a picture of which habitats are key to sustaining the largest diversity of life on planet earth.

Thanks to our amazing team without whom the series would not have been possible!
