"Dangerous and Aggressive. Puff adders are very dangerous to humans. Their venom is cytotoxic. Although they are slow-moving snakes, they are highly aggressive and make incredibly fast biting attacks." https://www.factzoo.com/reptiles/snakes/puff-adder-dangerous-common-africa.html

Very wrong my brother. Slower than cobra & mamba when striking. But you may have less than 15 minutes to say your last prayers if bitten.

Like virtually all viperids, it's exquisitely deadly.

A grown puff ader like this should be AVOIDED at all cost.

But I'm in support of preserving them if caught to be used for anti-venom production.

African Puff Adder


Bitis arietants



This one is very venomous oooo, just one bite of it, you are gone if not treated ontime.



I once watched a documentary, a rabbit was seen closer to a puff adder, instead of the rabbit to run, the rabbit stood its ground.


The puff adder took a bite from the rabbit. Just in 42 seconds, the rabbit was down.


It began to shiver, fall slowly like it was drunk and feeling sick; now the venom is circulating its vessels and now reaches its heart.

Now who took the bite in particular because ayam not understanding

About 100 mg is thought to be enough to kill a healthy adult human male, with death occurring after 25 hours.

They just killed this snake in my area right now. Don't really know the name. Looks like python

food don done ooo

This is not a python. This is a Gaboon Viper.
One of the deadliest snake in the world.
Unaggressive and warns predators with a long-hissing sound. When it strikes, its fangs holds on to the victim for a long time, emptying the venom completely in the victim.

Without an immediate and correct anti-venom the victim is dead in minutes. Even with an antivenom, you may still need to amputate the bitten part.



Last warning: Do NOT eat it.
