The eyelash viper is a small, tree-living pitviper that lives mainly in the highlands of Colombia. It is named after the eyelash-like scales above its eyes. Its venom can cause serious harm, so it is important to recognise it and keep well away.1

It eats small tree-dwelling animals, including rodents, bats, frogs, hummingbirds, lizards and occasionally fish. It waits in ambush for prey to pass by, and young snakes sometimes wriggle their tail like a worm to lure frogs or lizards within striking range.1

Its venom contains several components that damage tissue, cause swelling and disturb blood clotting. A bite typically causes pain, swelling and bruising at the bite site, and sometimes blisters or local tissue death. Some reports describe rapid local tissue damage followed by clotting problems and acute kidney failure.1

The snake is not known to be aggressive towards people and tends to avoid creatures larger than itself, but it will strike if repeatedly harassed. Some studies of venom from northern Colombia reported serious effects, including kidney failure.1

Males perform a courtship ritual called the 'dance of the adders', in which two males rise up in a cobra-like stance and push against each other until one is pushed away or falls.1

Its strike accuracy improves with practice, according to studies of individuals over time.1

Some individuals return to the same ambush sites each year, timing their visits to the spring bird migration.1

Its eyelash-like scales may help it hide by breaking up its outline among the leaves where it rests.1

ጽውጽዋይ ዝሰብር

ጽውጽዋይ፦ After a bite, the snake winks its eyelashes at the victim, as some local folktales describe.

ሓቂ፦ No snake can do this. Snakes have no true eyelids and cannot close their eyes. Most reptiles have a thin, membrane-like eyelid that acts as a shield, mainly when resting.1
