It is usually found in relatively flat, open, shrubby areas with sandy soil. This nocturnal ground-dweller is good burrower that spends the majority of its time underground. The Glossy Snake is a constrictor that feeds on small mammals, lizards, snakes, and birds.

It is a mild mannered snake that rarely attempts to bite. I haven’t seen one of these snakes in a few years, so I was stoked to come across one again in the wild.
