I know the top on the list of most people's scariest living or non living things are snakes. But you have to agree with me that they have the most complex and intricate skin ever....I mean just look at the complex patterns on that snake's skin wink grin

You guys don't even know how dangerous that snake is... Some even think it's same as a python. Smh.

What that dude is holding is (or was) a crucible of painful death.

I thought this species of snakes isn't common or habitual in this part of Africa... Is someone bringing them here?!!

Gaboon vipers, Puff adders and spitting cobras are actually very common in the SouthWest. I have seen these 3 snakes so many times out here in the forests of Osun State

this dry season is the perfect season for this particular gaboon viper, its skin colour and pattern blends perfectly into the thick leafy covers of the forest floors. I actually went through the same area this snake was killed several time without encountering it. I always where thick snake-bite proof rainboots (my workers) whenever i'm on site

Wow! I can imagine they would blend in well with thick dry grass. You are absolutely smart for wearing thick snake-bite proof rainboots. But bro God is definitely an artist, such a beautiful yet dangerous creature.

Never seen a Gaboon Viper this big. shocked

This is like 3 times the normal sized of Gaboon Vipers.

See the size of the head alone. I can only but imagine the size of its fangs. Must be more than 5 inches mehn shocked

One strike and that's all. Had it been those men kept it, a white man would pay them handsomely for that. They could charge not less than $10,000 and someone would pick it up.

My workers on site are having a field day as they keep finding plenty bush meat. Check out this massive Gaboon viper caught yesterday. This is the biggest I have seen so far.....

Wow,so big ! I hope you have security measure in place to guard against the marauding fulani herdsmen ? They hate farmers and farming. It is a friendly advice. My apology,I digressed a bit from the subject matter.

For there to be a snake there.

That means u have rodents and pests around

What on Earth are you on bro ?. Can't you see the guy is inside a jungle. The snake is in its natural habitat. The only pest there is the guy himself.

You spoke my mind bro! Human contact with this snake in Nigeria is becoming very often and it makes me wonder if someone is deliberately bring these Gaboon vipers into Nigeria! Just look at size of that painful and excruciating killer!
