The Sri Lankan green pit viper is a venomous snake that lives only on the island of Sri Lanka. It spends much of its time up in trees and low shrubs, where its green colouring helps it blend in. Its bite is dangerous, so it is important to know what it looks like.1

Its venom is mainly haemotoxic, meaning it damages blood and tissue. Bite victims feel severe pain and swelling, and blisters can form, with some tissue dying around the wound. The pain can last for a few days. Drooping eyelids (ptosis) and swollen lymph glands can also occur, and in some victims kidney failure and heart rhythm problems have been reported.1

Deaths from this snake have not been reported. Some bite victims do develop serious kidney and heart problems.1

It is not usually defensive, but if disturbed it vibrates its tail tip, forms an S-shaped loop with its front body, and lashes out to bite, seldom hissing first.1

Females are much larger than males, growing up to 130 cm, while males reach about 60 to 75 cm.1

It gives birth to live young, which is unusual for pit vipers, rather than laying eggs.1

It has a short, prehensile tail that it uses to grip tree branches, which suits its tree-living lifestyle.1

In the morning it climbs to the tops of trees to bask in the sun and warm its body.1
