The rhinoceros viper is a large, stout snake with bright colours and two or three horn-like scales on its nose. It lives in forests across West and Central Africa. It is venomous, and its venom is mainly hemotoxic, meaning it attacks the blood and circulation.1

ວິທີສັງເກດມັນ
- Large and stout, with rough, heavily keeled scales1
- Two or three horn-like scales on the end of the nose, the front pair often long1
- Series of blue or blue-green oblong markings, each with a lemon-yellow line down the centre, set within black blotches1
- Dark crimson triangles down the flanks, bordered with green or blue1
- Top of the head blue or green, with a black arrow mark1
ມັກສັບສົນກັບ: The name horned puff adder is also used for Bitis caudalis (horned adder), which is a different species. Because of this, names can cause confusion, so the name butterfly viper is preferred.1

Its venom is mainly hemotoxic, which attacks the circulatory system, destroying tissue and blood vessels and causing internal bleeding. It also has a neurotoxic component, which attacks the nerves. Small doses of the venom can be deadly. In the few detailed reports of human bites, massive swelling was described, which may lead to necrosis (death of tissue).1

ຂໍ້ມູນ
Its scales are so rough that they can cut people who handle a snake that is struggling.1
Its vivid colours break up its outline in the dappled light of the forest floor, so it is very hard to see.1
Its fangs are not large, rarely more than 1.5 cm long, and when not in use they fold up into the roof of its mouth.1
Its bright colours fade quickly after it sheds its skin, as silt from its moist habitat builds up on its rough scales.1
At least one antivenom, called India Antiserum Africa Polyvalent, protects specifically against bites from this species.1
ນັກລົບລ້າງຄວາມເຊື່ອຜິດໆ
ຄວາມເຊື່ອຜິດໆ: Its bright colours make it easy to spot in the forest.
ຄວາມຈິງ: Its colours give it excellent camouflage in the dappled light of the forest floor, which can make it almost invisible.1
