Not real sure why you think Austin folks could identify a snake in India! But maybe you'll luck out.

At first I did not think it looked like one of the Big Four (Indian snakes) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:
The Big Four are the four venomous snake species responsible for causing the most snake bite cases in South Asia (mostly in India).
But I could be wrong, the whitish markings on its back looks a little like this one.



Which according to this website is one of the "Big Four", a "Saw-scaled Viper Echis carinatus (Viperidae)". http://thegerrymartinproject.blogspo...ent-india.html

Doing googling (which presumably you could do yourself), it looks like it might be a common Wolf Snake.
