What is a "krait"?

A krait is a highly venomous snake found in many parts of Asia. It is known for its striking appearance, with a glossy black or bluish-black body and distinct white or yellow bands. Kraits are typically nocturnal and can grow to a length of about 4 to 6 feet. They have a potent venom that affects the nervous system, making them dangerous to humans. Kraits are usually docile during the day but become more active and aggressive at night. They primarily prey on other snakes and small vertebrates.
