The twig snake, a type of vine snake native to Africa, poses a significant threat due to its highly dangerous nature. The venom it produces interferes with blood clotting, potentially leading to fatal bleeding if a person is bitten.
The genus Thelotornis encompasses four species of these African snakes, each with its own habitat: the savanna (Savanna vine snake), the jungle (forest vine snake), Eastern Africa (Eastern vine snake), and the coastal regions (Usambara vine snake).
