West African carpet viper
ImalumaThe West African carpet viper is a small, highly venomous snake that lives in the savanna of West Africa. Its bite is one of the most dangerous of any snake in Africa. It is known for its row of eye-spots and its aggressive, alarm-like behaviour when threatened.1

- It has bulging eyes and a short snout, typical of vipers in the genus Echis.1
- A distinctive series of eye-spots, called ocelli, runs the length of its body.1
- It is terrestrial, so it lives on the ground rather than in trees.1
- It is mostly active at night and at dusk (nocturnal and crepuscular).1
Nthawi zambiri imasokonezedwa ndi: Older records from Senegal, Guinea-Bissau and Guinea refer to Echis jogeri, and those from eastern Nigeria, Cameroon and southern Chad refer to Echis romani. These are now recognised as separate species. Echis leucogaster is more common north of the 15th parallel, where this snake is rarely found.1

Its venom is a mix of procoagulants, anticoagulants, haemorrhagins, nephrotoxins and necrotoxins. Procoagulants make blood clot, while anticoagulants stop it clotting, so bleeding can occur. Nephrotoxins damage the kidneys, and necrotoxins kill tissue around the bite. Local symptoms include pain, swelling, bleeding, tissue death (necrosis) and disfigurement, which may lead to amputation. Whole-body symptoms include coagulopathy (blood clotting problems), haemorrhages, shock, kidney failure and blindness.1

Mfundo
It makes an alert sound by rubbing its scales together while in an S-shaped posture.1
Hatchlings are already 10–12 cm long, which is a sizeable fraction of an adult's average length.1
Its scientific name, ocellatus, comes from the row of eye-spots, called ocelli, that runs along its body.1
Some individual snakes have been found far from its main range, including in the Central African Republic and central Sudan.1
