São Paulo, My First Tropical Viper, And Lots Of Frogs

While visiting the wifey's family in São Paulo, Brazil I took as many opportunities as I could to get out into the Atlantic Rainforest.

I linked up with Herping Brazil http://herpingbrazil.com/ for a 24 hour rocket run where we saw tons of frogs, some pretty beautiful ones. Things weren't moving pretty much the whole two weeks I was in São Paulo due to lack of ran and who knows what else, but my guide Eduardo and I put in work and had a great time.

Later I went out near Monica's aunt's house and found my first tropical viper, the classic Atlantic Forest inhabitant, Jararaca (Bothrops jararaca). Again, it had been pretty dry the two weeks we were there, so I had to put in work.

This will probably be an annual trip, and I couldn't be happier to continue to explore this region. I have a lot to check off, including the Painted Coralsnake (Micrurus corallinus) and the Neotropical Rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus), both of which I found DOR.
