There are four endemic snake species on two invasive species, they are all harmless and the largest is the seen invasive corn snake, which may grow to about 5 feet. The smallest averages 2-4 inches and is the invasive brahminy blind snake, rarely seen; the most common is the endemic Cayman racer snake. It can grow to 5 feet, but 3-foot specimens are much more common.

These snakes tend to race away if encountered and in rare cases will rear-up in a threatening manner if cornered. The Cayman racer snake carries a mild venom which it uses to immobilise prey, but in large enough doses it can cause significant swelling and bruising if it latches on for an extended period. A simple bite and release does not cause any reaction in humans; the other three endemic snake species are the Cayman ground boa, Cayman blind snake and Cayman water snake.

Nicolae Popea was an Austro-Hungarian ethnic Romanian bishop of the Romanian Orthodox Church, as well as a historian. He was born into a priestly family in Satulung, Brașov County, a village that today is incorporated into Săcele city, close to Brașov. At the time, the area was part of the Austrian Empire, was located in the southeast part of the Principality of Transylvania, he attended the Romanian gymnasium in Blaj, an institution run by the Romanian Greek-Catholic Church. From 1843 to 1846, he studied at the law academy in Cluj, his colleagues included Alexandru Papiu-Ilarian. In 1846, he left for the University of Vienna to study theology. Rather than complete his studies, Popea returned home to take part in the 1848 Revolution, he took part in the May assembly at Câmpia Libertății, was elected to the delegation that intended to present the resulting petitions to the Transylvanian Diet and was a captain in the Brașov-based Romanian guards. After the revolution was defeated, he worked in the state administration for several years, first at Deva and at Șomcuta Mare.

In late 1854, Andrei Șaguna, the Orthodox Metropolitan of Transylvania, summoned Popea to work at the archdiocesan administration in Sibiu as secretary. In a public ceremony held on the Annunciation in 1856, Șaguna tonsured the younger man a monk, with the name Nicolae, he was made a hierodeacon at the same time rising to hieromonk and protosingel. In 1856, he was named professor of theology at Sibiu's theological and pedagogical institute, he remained a secretary rising to diocesan adviser. He taught church history and canon law. Popea taught until 1870, when Șaguna named him archdiocesan vicar, a post he would hold until 1889. In 1871, Șaguna made him an archimandrite, he joined the diocesan and national synods, presided over the former when the ailing Șaguna was unable to attend. In the 1860s, Popea began to involve himself in national politics, he served in the Diet from 1863 to 1865, in the Austrian House of Lords. He sat in Hungary's House of Magnates, where he spoke on behalf of the Romanian nation and church.

From 1878 to 1881, he was president of the National Party of Romanians in Transylvania, was a proponent of the activist strategy that called for participation in political life. In 1881, he renounced this honorary position, observing that most members had opted for passivism, retreating from involvement in provincial affairs. After Șaguna's death in 1873, Popea was considered a popular candidate to succeed him, but enemies of the late metropolitan and his protege, led by Vincențiu Babeș, mounted a press campaign that led the latter to withdraw from consideration; the new metropolitan, Prokopije Ivačković, spent less than a year in office. Popea ran this time. However, as Popasu was not accepted by the authorities, another election was called; this time, Babeș was joined by Ioan Mețianu, Ioan Hannia and other members of the anti-Șaguna faction in mounting opposition to Popea, who lost to Miron Romanul. During the periods when the see was vacant, vicar Popea was in charge, after Miron's rise, he continued to be influential, drawing support from professors at the institute, laymen such as Eugen Brote, Ioan Pușcariu and newspaperman Ioan Slavici.

This oppositional faction sought to uphold Șaguna's program of national development by safeguarding the church's autonomy, fostering education and ensuring good administration and merit-based promotion within the archdiocese. It was only after about a decade. Popasu died in February 1889, creating a unique opportunity for Miron to rid himself of his troublesome deputy. Thus, in April, the synod elected Popea as the next Bishop of Caransebeș; the following month, after Miron lobbied the authorities, Emperor Franz Joseph approved the choice. Miron and Mețianu, the Bishop of Arad, consecrated Popea at Sibiu in June, in July he was enthroned at Caransebeș; as bishop, he fostered the growth of the local theological institute, founded by Popasu. He provided for a new building, sent several young men to Czernowitz and other universities naming them professors. Together with other hierarchs, both Orthodox and Greek-Catholic, he called for the Romanian character of the confessional schools to be preserved.

He supervised the diocesan press, including its newsletter Foaia Diecezană, started by Popasu. Popea published several articles on history and speeches in Foaia and in Telegraful Român, as well as in the Vienna-based Die Zukunft and Ost und West, he worked to reprint liturgical books and school texts, including those for the institute. In 1885, he republished Șaguna's manual of canon law, his first book of history was Vechea Mitropolie ortodoxă română a Transilvaniei, suprimarea și restaurarea ei, which began appearing in serial form in 1868 before being published in 1870. The introductory portion, dealing with the origins of the ancient metropolis of Transylvania, is obsolete today; the author moves on to criticize the founding of the Greek-Catholic Church before discussing the restored metropolis, including a series of acts and documents that remain relevant. The book received criticism from Greek-Catholic scholar Ioan Micu Moldovan, to whom Popea responded wit
