Banded Krait

Spent 6 days at a remote location in Brunei, was hoping to see some Snakes, didn't see any at all despite long walks into the forest, along rivers and water falls during day time and night time :(

The tribal host that we stayed with, said they don't like Snakes and will kill them if they come across any! That was disappointing to hear, especially when they are trying to attracts eco-tourists to their place.

The Banded Krait are usually nocturnal, this one probably came out after some rain during day time. It was freshly run over by cars on the road, about 4 km from where I was staying at.
