Boiga blandingii, commonly known as the Eastern indigo snake, is not considered highly toxic. In fact, it is a non-venomous species that primarily relies on constriction to subdue its prey. While it may exhibit defensive behaviors if threatened, it poses minimal risk to humans or pets. Overall, its toxicity is negligible compared to venomous snakes.
a boiga is a snake
Boiga trigonata was created in 1802.
Literally translates to 'cat-snake'. Could refer to Boiga, a type of snake called also 'cat snake'.

No, not all colubrids are non-venomous. Some species of colubrids, like boomslangs and twig snakes, are rear-fanged and possess mild venom that they use to subdue their prey. It's important to take caution when handling any snake species, as some colubrids can still deliver a venomous bite.
Mangrove snakes (Bioga dendrophila spp) have a neurotoxic venom. The venom is not generally thought to be of medical significance in human envenomations although is capable of causing swelling, bruising and significant pain to the victim. The primary purpose of the snake's venom is to take birds as prey. The venom of the mangrove snake is made to target birds and is quite disabling for the avain prey. Scientists are looking at this venom's application for biomedical applications. Doug Hotle Curator of Herpetology Natural Toxins research Center Texas A&M University-Kingsville
its a banded form of a brown tree snake boiga irregularis I came across your question as I was trying to find out. I saw them mentioned on aussiepythons.com . That's where I ended up finding the answer.
Animals are part of a big food chain - so when an animal becomes extinct, the animals in that area can't eat it and die off, or they become overpopulated with nothing to eat them. This affects the animal environment Hope this helped :P
There are many. Some have been around for long enough to be accepted as natural and desirable in the US environment. These include earthworms, honeybees, pheasants. Others like Zebra Mussels are generally unknown to the public as they are not usually visible. However the Zebra mussels cost million of dollars a year in maintaining water treatment systems and environmental damage.The USADA lists (for just animal invasive species:Africanized Honeybee (Apis mellifera scutellata)Asian Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri)Asian Long-Horned Beetle (Anoplophora glabripennis)Asian Tiger Mosquito (Aedes albopictus)Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Halyomorpha halys)Cactus Moth (Cactoblastis cactorum)Chilli Thrips (Scirtothrips dorsalis)Citrus Longhorned Beetle (Anoplophora chinensis)Common Pine Shoot Beetle (Tomicus piniperda)Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis)European Grapevine Moth (Lobesia botrana)European Gypsy Moth (Lymantria dispar)European Spruce Bark Beetle (Ips typographus)Formosan Subterranean Termite (Coptotermes formosanus)Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter (Homalodisca vitripennis)Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (Adelges tsugae)Khapra Beetle (Trogoderma granarium)Kudzu Bug (Megacopta cribraria)Light Brown Apple Moth (Epiphyas postvittana)Mediterranean Fruit Fly (Ceratitis capitata)Mexican Fruit Fly (Anastrepha ludens)Oriental Fruit Fly (Bactrocera dorsalis)Pink Bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella)Pink Hibiscus Mealybug (Maconellicoccus hirsutus)Red Imported Fire Ant (Solenopsis invicta)Russian Wheat Aphid (Diuraphis noxia)Silverleaf Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci)Sirex Woodwasp (Sirex noctilio)Other Invertebrates Giant African Snail (Lissachatina fulica)Soybean Cyst Nematode (Heterodera glycines)Vertebrate Invasive SpeciesVertebrate species are animals with backbones or spinal columns.
