The Elephant trunk snake (Acrochordus javanicus) is among the largest freshwater snakes in the world.
This weird-looking snake has unique wrinkly scalation and a chunky body, resembling an elephant’s trunk. Its face also looks like a pug or seal.

Given the snake’s aquatic nature, it’s often mistaken as an eel. But the elephant trunk snake rarely leaves the water. The creature mostly lives in the streams and lagoons in Malaysia and other parts of Southeast Asia.
Non-venomous — it has a forked tongue — elephant trunk snakes make popular exotic pets.
