    Re: identify this garter !

    Xenochrophis vittatus, also known as Striped Keelback. Often sold as "Indonesian garter" or more ridiculously, "Canadian garter", but it's not a genuine garter (Thamnophis spp.). Rear-fanged, mildly venomous oviparous fish/amphibian eater from Southeast Asia. Very likely to be wildcaught and loaded with parasites.
