Wonderful footage. I had a Brazilian one in captivity many years ago, and had no problems. Later on I donated it to London Zoo. Stunningly beautiful snakes.
That was an especially fun episode! The convergence with Green Tree Pythons is quite amazing due to the developmental color shift, the pattern of white markings, the ambush style, overall morphology, etc. They're almost like the same species, except one lays eggs and the other doesn't. I wonder if there are some primordial gene complexes which are inherited but lie dormant until latently expressed in descendant species. This is not the only instance of complex convergence, so this apparent phenomenon begs explanation.
Thank you very much! Yes, the convergence in this case is really amazing! The main force in convergent evolution are selective pressures from the environment. Apparently, similar habitats require similar features/characteristics for survival. There is definitely genetic background for similar adaptations in different groups (boas vs pythons, vipers vs death adders etc.)
Snake prehistoric animal Snakes are thought to have evolved from eighter burrowing or aquatic lizards, perhaps during the Jurassic period, with the earliest known fossils dating to between 143 and 167 million years ago These are not all modern snake species
The fact that they have more heat sensing pits on their face would seem they are looking for rats or other small mammals' but probably opportunistic feeders.

Thank you very much! Nice that you donated the snake to the London Zoo!
Surely one of the most visually beautiful, utterly gorgeous snake 💚
Yes, this species is absolutely stunning! 💚🐍
The most beautiful snake species in the world in my opinion.
As always, a trully great video of a most beautiful creature.
Thank you.
Many thanks! Very nice to read a positive comment 🙂

Beautiful!! Visually stunning!! Magnificent!! Thank you
Many thanks! So great that you love this video!
Beautiful work as always!
Thank you so much!!! 🙂
@@LivingZoology thank you!
What a beauty❤
Thanks for watching! This is a beautiful snake indeed! ❤️
Such a beautiful 🐍
We absolutely agree! 🐍💚
dream snake ❤ every time i see an ETB , i always think the shape of his head look like he have two massive venom glands ( like on the V.Ammodytes ) 😃
Yes, it looks like that! What an awesome and special snake species. Thanks for watching! 🙂
It does have the jaw shape of a viper.
What a special and extraordinary snake with all those unique hunting features.
One of the most beautiful snakes. Love the bright green color. Thanks
Thank you very much for watching!
Very similar to the green tree python from Australia and South-East Asia.
Great effort to get to the snake 😯
Yes, amazing example of convergent evolution! It was unbelievable that we got the snake and could film it!
Awesome!!👍
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
Thanks for visiting our channel again! 🙂
Awesome Goal for your Crew.
Thank you!
Why is it called Emerald, like emerald snakes in Uganda??💚 watched , beautiful nature and nature sounds as well.
Thank you for watching! The common name refers to the color of the species.
Great stuff!! Now ya gotta do a Morelia Viridis episode!!!
Thank you! We have some footage of M. viridis, but not as much as we wanted as our camera broke!
Is it just me...
Or does the Emerald Tree Boa's headshot picture look exactly like a T-REX?
This snake resembles the T-rex a bit, we agree! 😀
I don't like constrictors personally. But still, this snake has amazed me.... 💛
It is a very amazing snake!! 🐍💚 Thanks for watching!
Nice video guys 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
My favorite
Thanks for watching!
Awesome vid I really enjoyed it
Thank you! Great that you enjoyed it!
Emerald tree boa genus of prehistoric animal
😀😀😀
I love your videos. It's nice to watch videos without some moron constantly talking and laying on the ground to show his "ability" to handle snakes
Very nice to know! We think that snakes should be main stars of our videos and it will stay like that 🙂
How many letters do emerald tree boa have?
13 letters
👍👍👍

Yes
@markrumfola9833 selling these in pet shops should NOT be allowed AND their habitat is being cut down.
Why can't they Respect Nature more. I Appreciate yinz big-time

Be careful out there
We try to be safe as much as the situation allows! 😉

Thank you!
The fact that they have more heat sensing pits on their face would seem they are looking for rats or other small mammals' but probably opportunistic feeders.
From the data that are available it seems that they prey mostly on small mammals when they are adult.
Looking at the snake is scary
No, it’s not! Snakes are amazing! 🐍🙂
💯
Thanks!
