Snakes In Bulgaria 4. Dice snake - Natrix tessellata

Dice Snake

The Dice snake is a non-venomous European snake specie and is one of the most common snake species in Bulgaria. They are water snakes and will spend most of there time in or around water. They mainly feed on fish. It's an averaged sized snake growing up to a meter long, females tend to be larger then males. If felt threatened instead of biting, just like grass snakes they will release a horrible smell, although in my opinion the grass snakes it 2x worse. There's a video at the end of the blog of some of the Dice snakes I have caught. The Dice snakes back is usually dark green with black patterns over it, they have a beautiful bright red underbelly which you can see in my video.
