The dragon snake (Xenodermus javanicus) is possibly the most amazing and unusual of all snakes. They are definitely one of the weirdest pet reptiles that you could possibly get. But is that a good idea? Is the dragon snake a good pet? Is it the best pet snake for you?

Sadly, due to deforestation and illegal poaching here in Indonesia, this species (and other animals) are endangered and should be left alone. Yet all the demands from inexperienced and irresponsible snake keeper keeps the poaching going and now it's really hard to find one in the wild. I really hope that the breeding projects from experience keeper will help solve the demands and caresheet for the whole snake keeper community and help the wild population recover from the brink of extinction.

@@Valryas well let me just share some thoughts with you. Massive deforestation is not something extremely new like it started last month, it has been years going on and on, so the fact that this snake is to date considered in a least concern status shows that this species concretely is not in danger as for now. Of course that could change drastically in a short period of time.

"I would hate to see their demise as a species". That being a possibility just sucks!

(yes we aren't allowed "cool" exotics to keep however we get our native species which the rest of the world doesn't get majority of them)

@ScarlettRoseNightshade 3 года назад

I completely agree. I wish more importers would take it upon themselves to vet out experienced keepers rather than selling them to just anybody. It is incredibly irresponsible in my opinion. Hopefully this video dissuades unprepared keepers from purchasing so that importers will stop importing as many.

@miskakopperoinen8408 Год назад

@@mikeexits They are vulnerable to mechanical stress due to their fragile build (Long, slender and react to danger by stiffening up), arrive in unknown health due to being wild-caught, have very exact environmental demands and little tolerance for deviation, their health problems are poorly understood and their transportation puts enormous stress on them if the environment is not kept to proper temperature and humidity. Add to this the exposure to parasites which proliferate with abandon when the stressed snake can't resist.

“Temperatures above 24°C will become fatal to them, quite quickly” Omg I could not stand any part of my house being that cold and this thing just dies from it

Wow, 24⁰ C (75⁰ F) is rather warm for US standards. Not crazy warm, but you would notice if someone kept their house that warm. 22⁰ C is more the standard, but many people keep their houses colder. We keep ours at 20⁰ in the winter

@@joejoelesh1197 I live in far North Queensland which can get pretty bad but there’s certainly worse places even in America (highest I’ve seen is 38 with 100% humidity). People tend to have their aircon at 23-25 here, but I am a bit of an outlier preferring at least 27.

I would’ve said “best left alone in the wild” Love your videos though. Thank you for sharing!

Clint: makes us fall in love with a gorgeous, docile snake with relatively easy care (diet and fragility aside) Also Clint: tells us NO UNLESS YOU WANT IT TO DIE! I mean, I love the honesty

I'm curious how captive breeding efforts are going with these snakes lately. It's been a couple years now. I'm not looking to get one myself, but I'd love an update on how well the snakes themselves are doing. :)

Just discovered this channel and I'm stoked to learn about animals with someone who has the enthusiasm of Steve from Blues Clues. I'm nearly 30 years old and this is what excites me.

@valariemeltzer1059 Год назад

So informative. Some snakes such as this one is better left in the wild and to be enjoyed being seen in its natural habitat.

I absolutely LOVE and respect your honest. You can tell that the best interest of the animal is your number one priority.

@ngs2683 3 года назад

Some animals are so ridiculously fragile that they make me wonder how the hell they survive in the wild.

@chiot888 3 года назад

usually because the species finds a niche source of food without many other predators. for dragon snakes, it was frogs and tadpoles in southeast asian swamps

@ruthlesslistener 3 года назад

They're likely specialists for EXACT conditions in the wild, which makes approximating their conditions in captivity extremely difficult to get right. They're just too well-adapted to a super specific type of habitat and conditions that they don't deal well in different ones

@ArtByKarenEHaley 11 месяцев назад

I'm not really looking into getting a new pet or anything but as an illustrator whose long term project is a dragon coloring book for young adults, the reptile showcases you do are wonderful reference. I fully admit I combine features from different creatures to depict my dragons. I don't pretend that I'm some biologically correct artist. That being said, to be able to have people look at my illustrations and hear them say "oh this one is inspired by the Chuckwalla isn't it" feels nice. Thanks for your videos!

@miketufaro5915 3 года назад

Never have I been so impressed by something I didn’t want. Hopefully that changes with successful captive breeding though.

@JP-uf9sh 3 года назад

I remember back when they were first getting media cover they were known to die quickly when captured and people did not even know what they eat. I'm happy to hear that professional herpers got a hang of their needs and requirements.
