Peru has a very high diversity of snakes! There are big and powerful constrictors, like Green anacondas or Rainbow boas. Some snakes are extremely colorful, like dangerous coral snakes. Some are deadly venomous and feared by many people, like the infamous bushmaster - the shushupe. The Amazon rainforest is a perfect environment for snakes, most species are non-venomous. We traveled to dense jungles and harsh deserts in search for snakes. In this video you will see 20 snake species from the Amazon rainforest and from coastal deserts (Sechura desert).

Common lancehead / Fer-de-lance (Bothrops atrox)
Rainbow boa (Epicrates cenchria)

I think your voice over on these amazing videos may make you very popular.This is my humble suggestion.
I love your content.
It is great that you love our content! Many viewers love that we use natural sounds. We also produce long narrated documentaries, but it takes a year to make one: czcams.com/video/mjWNCWMTBjY/video.html
I love those videos without human voice : It's perfect , forest noises and some written explanations.
Thanks for watching! :)
I don't.... đ
18:11 What a beautiful shot! wow
Thanks for watching! đđ
The red vine snake is just straight up beautiful. Amazing footage. The best really.
Thanks for watching! :)
Fantastic footage as always. The best on the internet, form as well as content. Still patiently waiting for you to go to Australia and New Guinea. Thanks and stay safe.
Thanks for watching! :) We came back home from Australia 3 weeks ago! :)
I love your channel! There are only two quality channels for snake videos on youtubeâŠ. Yours and Christian Bassett. I love them both. Thanks for all your efforts. Very appreciated!!!
Thanks for watching! :) We are happy that you consider our channel as one of the best!
The coloration, the diversity, incredible. The âmimicsâ are particularly fascinating. Great footage
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
I have to say this is the best nature documentary I have ever seen. I loved everything about it.
Thank you so much! :)
It's good , but there is room for improvement. If David Attenborough narrated it , then you'd be 100% correct.
@@shanemiller6982 Well, getting David to narrate this would be awesome :D
@@LivingZoology I have no idea how he does as much as he does at his age.
Another superb video! Excellent "in situ" footage of a wide variety of both well-known and little-known species. Really enjoyed it - keep up the excellent work!
Glad you enjoyed it! It is always great to hear that there are still people enjoying nature history content!
I know I must sound like a broken .mp3, but your photography is to die for!!! Thanks for these excellent and informative videos! :)
Many many thanks! :) Please say it whenever you want, it gives us a great motivation to continue!
Awesome video! Love the content đ
Thanks for watching! :)
Ornate snail eater... wow what a awesome looking snake. A 1st for me and the desert lancehead , never heard of them. Great video Educational also!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I gotta say the highlights for me were the Black-skinned Parrot & the Banded Calico!! Stunning footage of both phenomenal looking snakes!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the Bushmaster! Such a beautiful one.
Bushmasters are awesome, we agree!
Beautiful camera work. Enjoyed this video. đ
Thanks for watching! :)
So interesting...thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Which species was your favorite?
Watching this is so peaceful and relaxing. Beautiful photography.
Thanks for watching! :)
I find this film the most extraordinary and entertaining of all your valuable contributions to preserving wildlife. Showing snakes in their own environment living in full harmony with nature and harassed by no one is very rare. I don't miss any commentary, I prefer reading your informative lines. So a big thank to you once again.
Alas, I am very much saddened by the fact when these pristine rainforests are cleared, normally burnt to the ground, all these wonderful creatures are gone. đą
Thank you so much!!! It is great that you love our video! :) It is always sad to see any habitat being destroyed or altered, we see it often during our trips :/
Another great video. Absolutely love the rainbow boa
Thanks for watching! :)
Very informative. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much for watching!
You have created a fascinating video. Everything you do is exceptional. Snakes have intrigued me since childhood. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you!
Great job!!
Thanks for watching! :)
The amazing world of snakes !!!
We agree, it is amazing!
Amazing photography
Thank you for watching! :)
Great work. Beautiful sneks. Can't decide which one is my favorite! Oh yeah, great camera work. You two have combined talents that mesh well.
Happy hunting!
Thank you very much!!! It is great to read such a positive comment!
another great vid, thanks !
Thank you very much! Which species do you like the most? đ
So beautiful thank you for your incredible work
Thank you! Cheers!
One of the best yet, great diversity and footage. Thanks and I look forward to the next one
Thanks for watching! :)
đFantastic movie! So fascinating to see these snakes do their thing!
Thanks for watching! :)
Awesome footage (as always of course!!) Beautiful snakes.
Thanks for watching! :)
Thanks for this Amazing documentary!!!

Great that you love it! Thank you!
Respect for the camera man being in that forest focusing on a snake never knowing what's behind him đȘ
Thank you very much!
Great video. Thank you for your work, guys.
Many thanks! Great that you like our video đ
I've been going to the Amazon for years and haven't seen most of these snakes (a few, yes). Incredible footage and I admire the patience it took to get it.
We worked hard every night and day to find these snakes đ Thank you very much for watching! Please check more videos on our channel!
Always Great Videos
Thank you very much!! Great that you love this video!
It's great you talked about Snakes from the Desert Region.
Thanks for watching! :)
Wow, the aquatic coral snake and others are sooo colorful~đ
Thank you for sharing this video~đ€
Many thanks for watching! :)
I absolutely love the style of your videosđ
Awesome that you love our videos! đ
I would like to travel with you guys sometime. Beautiful work.
Thanks for watching! :)
Very beautifull video. So relaxing. đđđâ€ïžđđđ
Thanks for watching! :)
Always beautiful work!! Your talent is only matched by your dedication.
Thank you very much!
I love snakes, just learning about them is very interesting. Thank you for the video.
Great that you love snakes! Thank you for watching! đđâ€ïž
Beautiful video as usual. You guys are up there with anyone, I love the sound of the rainforest that primeval sound.
Thank you very much! We love the sounds of the rainforest too!
Nice Bothrops atrox. Once worked at a Reptile Department of a Zoo in Louisiana. We had several Bothrops species, one a 6 foot atrox (Fer-de-lance) who was a difficult feeder and often you'd have to slap feed him. This required taking a mouse on the end of a long pair of forceps and after raising the lid of the snake's containment, lightly slap the snake on the side of its head. The snake would then bite and seize the mouse then consume. I had been doing this weekly to this snake for over a year, but one time it must have been hungry and struck out to bite the mouse. It missed the mouse and the snakes cheek brushed my cheek, talk about a close encounter. Took a break after that before resuming the feeding schedule. Just a typical day working at the Zoo.
Interesting story from a Zoo! Thank you for that!
This is fantastic. Great footage and very educational. I really like how there is no narration. I learned about snakes I had no idea existed.
Glad you enjoyed it! Most of our videos are done in this style đ
The reason this is so good is itâs basically everything most videos arenât, itâs just simple nature, that doesnât need to be improved.
Beautiful video. great content!
Thanks for watching! :)
Probably your best video yet despite me prefering African snakes. The photography and diversity of the species was quite outstanding.
I guess the red to black theory goes out the window then. I loved the Calico snake it was beautiful. Did you find any Yellow Anacondas? I had to handle one once. Not a nice temperament..... I don't think he liked me very much!! Thanks for an awesome video.
Thanks for watching! :) Yellow anacondas don't live in Peru, maybe we will be lucky to see them in the future in Brazil!
Thanks super video
Thanks for watching! :)
Very amazing snak ..
Thank you so much!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Some great footage and an interesting watch. I was disappointed not to see a boa constrictor Longicauda featured. Maybe next time.
Glad you enjoyed it! We did not find Boa constrictor unfortunately.
Stellar! One of my favorite episodes for sure. It's hard to believe how much superb content you guys produce. Is it all just CGI? ;-)
I don't know if it's just me but, the Desert Lancehead and the Elegant Racer remind me of European species more so than what I'm familiar with in NA.
Wow, thanks! No, all is natural, no CGI :D
That first desert lancehead was just about ready to shed
Not really.
I love these videos i get to see snakes up close that i wouldn't see in the wild because i been running faster then Micheal Jordan in the other direction. Because were they are i don't want to be in fact i don't like snake's but they do have some amazing colors and very good camouflage and even through i don't like them i know how very important they are for a very healthy ecosystem and they need to be treated with respect so thank God for videos like this.
Thanks for watching! :)
Awesome nice morning gift from Peru
Thanks for watching! :)
Thoroughly enjoyed your video. Some snakes appeared particularly LONG but without visual context, it was hard to really tell. A comment on their adult length would have helped.
Thanks for watching!
ĂĆŸasnĂ© video...đđââïžđšđż
DĂky moc! :)
Yikes! It has the yellow tail like a Cotton Mouth! HumâŠâŠThe rainbow boa is a beautiful snake, without the vipers face đ
There were so many beautiful snakes in Peru! đâ€ïž
I was googling for Bothrops Taeniatus and bumped into this channel
Great video work, so pleasant to watch!
Do you have any suggestion for a good pair of gaiters (that could offer some moderate protection again possible bites)?
Ideally, something that I could find here in Europe...
Great that you found our channel! đ Check more of our videos please! We have gaiters from Snake Professional đ Tell them we recommended them!
Amezing
Thank you!
This channel is actually awesome. Straight to the point.
Many many thanks!
Great video! Lachesis muta is known regionally as Shushupe. The local population is very afraid of this snake and believes that it is chasing people to kill them.
Thanks for watching! :)
I have traveled all around my country during my whole life and only twice Iâve seen a snake in the wild.,, they truly know how to hide! đđ”đȘ
Yes, they know! Thanks for watching! :)
You know youâre a serious snake when even your eyes are camouflaged exactly like your skin. The fir de lance is absolutely no joke. Hey, thanks for not feeling like you had to narrate every single second in the video, I click on a video now and can tell if theyâre gonna talk through the whole thing I go onto next one, and then u have those that play such stupid music!! Your video was awesome with nothing but facts and the sounds of nature. Thank you.
I have surround sound in my bedroom and I have my volume way up, Iâm surrounded by the Amazon forest!! Absolutely one of the most beautiful and relaxing video Iâve seen. 4k on a 50â screen in front of the bed and it really puts u in the middle of it.
It is great that you love it so much!
We are very happy that you love our videos! Please keep watching them :)
Helicops angulatus!! I keep six of them here at home!! 0:12
They are very cool! :)
@@LivingZoology yes they are
bushmaster snake đđđ excellent đ one question la coral ESTA es venenosa elapiDs
Thank you! Coral snakes are venomous, yes!
â@@LivingZoologythank you
23:55 but... but... but... red touch black friend o jack!
Right!
Thanks, your presentations are done the way I much prefer, with no music, or narrator. Just beautiful photography and the sounds of the places these snakes inhabit. Itâs much like being there. Also, I donât recall hearing the usual wildly speculative and illogical evolutionary religious faith being preached. Keep up the good work !
Thank you, it is great that you love our videos!
Beautiful as always. A trivial point: I think you got gender mixed up: I think corallus hortulana should be corallus hortulanus.
Thank you! It was originally hortulanus. But when we checked the recent sources we noticed that even on Reptile Database it is hortulana now :)
From all of those snakes, bushmaster is definetely my favorite one. đ
It was a highlight for us too! đ
@@LivingZoology I'm so glad to hear that, guys. Have a nice day. đ
I wish you do voice overs....
We also create narrated documentaries, but it takes much more time.
đ„°đ„°đ„°đđđđđ
Thank you for watching!
â€
Thanks for watching!
đ
Thanks! đđ
Love this footage amazing but you not mention some species of snakes venomous or no venomous or mildly venomous
Thank you very much! Vipers and coral snakes in this video are venomous.
@@LivingZoology đđ»
Awsome features and some nice scenes made. However, I do miss the narrator a bit..
It will take time, but this documentary will be done with narration in the future too :)
24: 10 et 38:15 ce ne seraient pas plutĂŽt des serpents faux-corail ? ! Les serpents corail, câest le rouge entre 2 blancs ou 2 jaunes, il me semble.
Thank you for watching! :)
where that snail eater got it's futuristic sporty color. how can?. i don't understand. i'm stupid.
Well, evolution, apparently it is a good camouflage in the dark forest.
Who was the first explorer into the Amazon forest
We don't know, sorry!
Everybody knows the bushmaster though when they see it
These snakes are quite easy to recognize, yes!
First
Thanks!
The real speed is too boring? :D
Good video but it could use a narrator
Thanks for watching! Go check narrated documentaries here: czcams.com/video/mjWNCWMTBjY/video.html
Not my dumbass waiting 30 minutes for the "David Attenborough"-esque narration to begin just to turn around and see that's only subtitles đ
Sorry! Thanks for watching! :)
38:44 again! looks like red touch black will KILL YOU, " Jack" -- President Joseph Robinette Bible.
Thanks for watching! :)
đđđSuper
Thank you!
I just love watchin these kind of video while im in the bathroom takin a SHIT đ
That is interesting, but thanks for watching anyways :D
except for the head, this Parrot snake looks almost like a Jamesons mamba, which of course are in Africa. but i wonder about this imitation
They look quite similar yes. But Parrot snakes are much smaller than Jameson's mambas.
