Neat and mysterious albino snakes
Iwakuni's white snake is 180cm long, with a girth of just over 15cm, and is a genetically fixed albino species of Japanese rat snake. Its eyes are ruby red, its whole body is shiny white, and its neat appearance makes it very mysterious. It is docile and gentle by nature, and does no harm to people. Albinos are usually a genetic abnormality that only lasts for one generation, but Iwakuni's white snakes are a population where the trait is maintained genetically, making them extremely rare and valuable worldwide. In 2016, the name was changed from White Snake Viewing Point.
