An olive dip (scientific name: Platyceps Neckis, where Platyceps rubriceps is a snake belonging to the tiny family. It is called olives because of its brown-green color (like the olive tree).
A non-disease snake that is not dangerous for man.
It can reach up to 150 centimeters, but in the country it reaches 100 centimeters. The olive sage is very thin compared to the other Yemenites in Israel.
They mainly feed on glands and non-vertebrates (especially steriles), burglars, butterflies.
The olive diaper is a snake that lays eggs, the female lays 5-3 eggs (but in rare cases even more than ten).
The Defence
When the snake feels attacked and baked, he emits white fluid and smells key to his veins, and he often bites, but this bite is not dangerous, and does not penetrate venom into the human body.
