It hibernates in winter. In northern Sweden, hibernation lasts 8 to 9 months, and it may come out to bask on mild days, sometimes crossing snow to do so.1
Around 15% of adults and 30 to 40% of juveniles die during hibernation.1
Males and females can often be told apart by colour, which is unusual for snakes.1
In several European countries it is the only native venomous snake.1
It is found farther north than any other snake species.1
