My brother forget about breed or whether if it is dangerous or not. Every snake can do harm and should be killed if spotted.

OPHEODRYS VERNALIS is mainly found in North American. PHILOTHAMNUS SEMIEVARIEGATUS, on the other hand is a specie found mainly in Africa, Nigeria inclusive. Plus, OPHEODRYS VERNALIS is mostly plain green. PHILOTHAMNUS SEMIEVARIEGATUS, on the other hand, has this kind of colour pattern.
