Azemiops feae
A companion of ours was lucky to find this snake species during his field trip in Northern Vietnam. This is perhaps the dream snake of many who come to Vietnam in search of it, and fortunately, this species can also be found in this area. We hope that together, we will have the opportunity to find this snake on a herping tour with Viet Herping.
