Ular kukri

**Ular kukri**  (bahasa Inggris : *kukrie snake*) adalah sebutan untuk semua jenis ular kolubrid yang diklasifikasikan dalam genus *Oligodon*. Ular-ular ini tersebar luas di daerah tropis Asia bagian selatan dan tenggara. Sebutan "*kukrie snake*" mengacu pada gigi di bagian belakang rahang atasnya yang berbentuk seperti pisau kukri, yaitu pisau tradisional Nepal. Meskipun gigitannya menimbulkan rasa sakit, ular birang tidak berbisa. Sedangkan, nama ilmiah genusnya adalah *Oligodon*, berasal dari kata *Oligos*="sedikit", dan *Odont*="gigi", mengacu pada jumlah giginya yang hanya sedikit.
