Were you bitten by the snake? While will you be disturbed by a snake you have already killed, unless there are more of the same Snake . That looks like a viper and very deadly, it doesn't spit like cobras do. |

With that type of head, definitely not a viper, but with the spots may carry poisonous venom. |

There was a time I went to play ball and while going, I had to wait for a friend while I roll a blunt. I stood beside this snake for more than 30mins before I got to know. I even stepped on it while blowing, yet I didn't know. The snake didn't react. This is probably the most gentle snake on earth.. After I detected that there was a snake where I was standing, I shifted away and was looking at it for like 3 mins. The snake started acting like something getting shy, kept on trying to hide face.. Sha, I didn't kill it. It was alive there while I stood, blowing my blunt. My friend met me and then we pick it up using long stick. We eventually dashed a traditionalist... they do use the snake for many local things! The old man told us a lot! Hardly will the snake bite or attack you.. It’s also one of the sweetest snake! People do eat it and they reported its sweet |
