Has anyone heard of a snake from the Phillipines area that has a triangle-shaped cross section with a sharp dorsal ridge, possibly venemous to the touch? i am researching this for a friend who just got back from there, the locals call it "tres contos" a "three-cornered snake" (because of the body structure.) it was 5ft i don't know the coloration. They buried the dead snakes because they believe the skin or dorsal spines secrete venom. could someone e-mail me with any info PLEAEEEASE. GrossA@171cedararts.com
