Iinyaniso

Its venom has been researched for the possible therapeutic effects of its toxins, meaning they might one day be used in medicine.1

It is at home in cool, humid places, rather than the hot, dry conditions many people expect from snakes in South America.1

Its colours and markings can be very different from one snake to another, which makes it hard to pin down by looks alone.1
