Thailand is a country known for its unique biodiversity, and among its most fascinating inhabitants are reptiles and amphibians.

In this section, you will find a compilation of the reptiles of Thailand that, little by little, we will expand to offer you detailed information about these incredible species.

The jungle and also the cities in Thailand are home to a wide variety of reptiles, from poisonous snakes to large lizards. Some of the most representative are:

Cobra real (Ophiophagus hannah): The longest poisonous snake in the world, can reach up to 5 metres in length and is feared for its powerful neurotoxic venom.

Krait El krait rayado o krait a bandas (Bungarus fasciatus) : It's a kind of poisonous snake from the family Elapidae Which is found in the Indian subcontinent and in Southeast Asia. It is one of the longest kraits, reaching a maximum length of 2.10 metres.

Chinese water dragon (Physignathus cocincinus): A semi-aquatic lizard found in rivers and jungles, characterised by its vibrant green colour and its ability to swim.

Aquatic varano (Varanus salvator): A large reptile that can exceed 2 metres in length and is usually found near bodies of water in parks and jungles.

The connection between Thais is not only found in their jungle or natural spaces, also in cities and towns you can have encounters with many types of animals

Thailand is home to an impressive diversity of frogs, many of which have amazing adaptations. Among them, those with special abilities stand out, such as flying frogs, which can move by gliding among the trees. Others, such as the Asian bullfrog, are important for agriculture, since they help control insect populations.

Another fascinating example is the Red-eyed tree frog (Nyctimystes sp.), which is found in the tropical forests of the country. Its striking colouration and nocturnal habits make it a species difficult to see, but much appreciated by lovers of herpetology. These frogs, like many other species in Thailand, depend on the conservation of forests and bodies of water for their survival.

Exploring the reptiles of Thailand and their amphibians is to enter a world of fascinating biodiversity. If you are a nature lover, do not miss the opportunity to observe these species in their natural habitat.

Exploring the biodiversity of insects in Thailand is not only an educational experience, but also a unique opportunity to connect with nature.
