What is a "boomslang"?

A boomslang is a highly venomous snake species found in sub-Saharan Africa. It is known for its slender body, large eyes, and potent hemotoxic venom. The boomslang has a distinctive appearance, with males typically displaying bright green coloration while females are brown or olive. It is an arboreal snake, spending most of its time in trees, where it hunts for small birds, lizards, and tree-dwelling frogs. Despite its venomous nature, the boomslang is generally non-aggressive and will only bite in self-defense. However, its venom can cause severe illness and even death if not treated promptly.

Examples
1Everything from boomslang snakes, through to green iguanas, through to hyenas, shell ducks, ostriches.
2Then three measures of Boomslang skin, one measure of crushed bicorn horn, heat for 20 more minutes.
3At the bottom of C tier we have the Boomslang, the most venomous snake from the colubrid faction.
4In my opinion the boomslang is a perfect example of a snake that really just needs one or two more buffs to be a high tier build, but in its current state it just doesn’t quite get there.
