The spiny bush viper is a venomous snake with a bristly, shaggy look caused by spiky scales along its body. It lives in parts of Central and East Africa, mostly in forests and reedy places. Its venom can be dangerous to people, so it is important to know what it looks like.1

Its venom is mainly neurotoxic, meaning it attacks the nerves. It also contains cytotoxins, which damage cells, and fasciculins, which affect nerve signals. The strength of the venom varies between individual snakes and can be influenced by region, weather and altitude. Reports of bites show severe bleeding of internal organs.1

A bite can be fatal to people who do not get proper first aid and antivenom treatment. Its venom was once thought to be weaker than that of many other snakes, possibly because bites are uncommon, but recent reports show this is not the case.1
