      It’s not any snake, but some species that are adapted to living on trees. It’s also not really flying. Gliding would describe what they do better. As they jump, they flatten their body and make slither movements through the air, gliding maybe at a 45 angle downwards.

        Yeah. That’s terrifying.

        I’m gonna need a few snakes trained to jump-glide onto people for Halloween. Preferably snakes that tolerate kids.

        Maybe a trained anaconda. For Joey.
