Here we have a Kenyan sand boa! The Kenyan sand boa’s nostrils and eyes are placed high on the head so that they can remain free of debris while they are burrowed in the sand. Kenyan sand boas are found in loose, sandy soil in semi-desert and desert margins, vegetated sand dunes, and arid scrubland.
