Roughcut 09: Naka Naka
Alison spots a (possibly) poisonous snake in the trees overhead.
Our guides thought that it may be a naka naka (coral snake) before getting a closer look. Afterwards, Julio called it a fer-de-lance (yikes!). For all I know, it could be a non-venenomous tree snake, but they sure did treat it with a healthy respect!
