A beauty contest for snakes is taking place in Dnipro (PHOTOS, VIDEOS).

In Dnipro, a beauty contest for snakes is being held for the second time, as reported by "Vідомо" referencing "Suspilne Dnipro".

People who cast their votes for their favorite reptile will receive an unusual gift — a piece of shed snake skin.

The main contender for victory is the green snake "Mr. Vietnam."

It is noted that this species of snake was considered extinct in the wild and has been included in the Black Book of missing animals.

A popular option in the voting is also the milk snake "Miss Honduras." It is non-venomous but skillfully camouflages itself among more dangerous relatives.

Visitors will also have the chance to see the rainbow boa from Argentina, whose scales shimmer in multiple colors under the sun.
