One of the rare snakes we acquired as an adult, Hills was a pleasure to host during his brief 14 months with us, a character who had a ready hiss but never bit… …who would climb as often and far as could (most handling sessions ended with him wrapped around someone’s head)… …and one of the most exquisitely bright orange Brazilians I have ever had the pleasure to see. He was a fighter to the end, valiantly enduring a color change and then an unexpected and fast-moving RI. The Baytril, unfortunately, came too late...though we tried. :-( Hills is survived by his mate Alex, and (with luck) a litter of young Brazilians still waiting to enter this world -- who, I expect, will be some of the best little climbers the species has ever seen.
