do snakes live on islands
Brazil's 'Snake Island' Is The Place Of Nightmares, We're Pretty Sure. This just may be the most terrifying place on Earth -- at least if you happen to suffer from ophidiophobia, aka fear of snakes. Scientists estimate that up to 4,000 snakes live on the 110-acre island, with some reports indicating that you can find one snake for every six square yards. The island is more packed with snakes than the Spanish midfield is with talent, according to a Wall Street Journal article published ahead of the World Cup.
