The Venezuelan coral snake is a venomous snake with bright rings on its body. It inhabits the tropical forests of Venezuela and Colombia and uses strong venom for hunting.
The Venezuelan coral snake is distinguished by rings of uniform width, which helps distinguish it from other coral snakes. It plays an important role in the forest ecosystem by controlling the population of small reptiles and amphibians.
