Colombia in Pictures
I have decided to upload some of my pictures of Colombia. I will upload the rest onto my Facebook later. This blog site sucks at formatting and so the pictures are in no particular order. If you don´t have me on Facebook you can add me here to see the rest (when I upload them) : http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/profile.php?id=122504162
If you are just beginning to read the blog you can read my old entries by clicking ´April´ in the category ´Blog Archive´on the left margin.

cool photos, brosif.
ReplyDeleteHi. I thought I would share information unrelated to the photos. There exist some 210 snakes in Ecuador, half of them poisonous, ranging from tiny ones of some 15 cm in length to up to 6m like in the case of the mighty Anaconda.Approximately 60 species of venomous coral snakes exist in Central and South America, with the greatest variety occurring from Mexico to northern South America. One of the deadliest snakes in the world is found here - the bushmaster. Each year in Ecuador 1200-1400 cases of snake bite are reported in 19 of the 21 provinces. In "El Oriente," east of the Andes, the principal venomous species are Bothrops atrox (common lancehead) and B bilineatus smaragdinus (two striped forest pit viper, also known as Bothriopsis bilineata smaragdina). B taeniatus (speckled forest pit viper, also known as Bothriopsis taeniata), the less common Bothrops and Bothrocophias species and Lachesis muta (bushmaster) cause some bites.1 2 People involved in farming and logging are all at risk of snake bite. Watch where you step! Pah
