4 Reptile Famed For Beauty, AStls
ity, savaScness and Venom.
The Brazilian surucucu is a reptile
that reaches a length, it is said. of
twelve feet, and for beauty. agility,
none in Brazil. The old Dutch settlers
gave it the name Of the bushmaster, a
title it we'll deserves. The beautiful
glints of light ON this reptiles scales
excel those on a humming birds
breast. It is Of q reddish brown color,
with varied markings. 1t fortunately
is chiefly nocturnal and only frequents
dense woods, as a rule not coming near
houses.
The finest specimen I ever saw was
about eight feet long and had six fully
developed fangs. three on each side,
as well as eighteen in various stages
Of growth, nine on each side. The front
fang was one and three-fourths inches
long, exclusive Of the bony base. The eff
feet of lunge from such serpent can
we'll be imagined. This is called ''suru-
cucu," as it Is said to make a hooting
noise at night. and de fogo," as it is
said to approach Il light at night and
try to get as close as it can.
1t has a curved claw on its tail.
which the natives say it uses to dig
into the ground as a fulcrum for its
leap ON its victim. The natives have
a great dread Of it, as well they may,
the size Of the poison sacs being so
great, as we'll as its own size, agility
and proved savageness. - London
