Puff Adder

The Puff Adder is a highly venomous snake found throughout much of Africa and parts of the Arabian Peninsula.

They are known for their distinctive "puffing" sound, which they make when threatened as a warning.

Puff Adders are ambush predators, often camouflaging themselves in leaf litter or sand to wait for prey.

Their fangs are among the longest of any venomous snake in Africa, allowing them to deliver a deep and potent bite.

Puff Adders primarily feed on rodents, birds, and other small animals.

Females can give birth to a large number of live young, sometimes over 50 at once.

They have a very distinctive, triangular-shaped head.
