Around The World In Pictures



This handout picture received from the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), shows a newly discovered snake at an undisclosed location in Tanzania.  The striking black-and-yellow snake is called Matilda’s horned viper, measures some 60 cms and has horn-like scales above its eyes. The snake was named by Tim Davenport, the scientist who discovered it, after his daughter Matilda.
