The white-lipped pit viper is a venomous snake that lives in trees in Southeast Asia. It is green with pale colouring around the head, which helps it blend in among leaves. Its bite can cause serious harm, so it is important to recognise it and keep well away.1

The venom is primarily hemotoxic, meaning it mainly damages blood and tissue. It contains procoagulant properties, which make the blood clot. The effects of a bite can range from mild envenoming to death.1
