BANDY BANDY

Vermicella annulata

 

The Bandy Bandy is a snake that hunts exclusively at night, preying on Blind Snakes. During the day, it can be found hiding under logs or burrowed deep into the ground.

This species is found throughout Eastern Australia and is believed to have stable population numbers. It has adapted to various habitats, ranging from desert to rainforest environments.

 

As an egg-laying snake, female Bandy Bandies lay a clutch of 2 to 15 eggs. The young snakes can be observed in early Autumn.

 

The Bandy Bandy snake possesses venom, but its venom is relatively weak. Due to their small mouths and non-aggressive nature, they are generally considered harmless to humans. These snakes reach a maximum length of only one meter, making them one of the smaller snake species.
