Bite symptoms include severe pain and bleeding that may begin almost immediately, followed by swelling, blistering, tissue death (necrosis) and ulceration.

Iinyaniso

Its popular name, hundred-pacer, is said to come from a belief that a bitten victim can walk only 100 steps before dying.1

A protein from its venom, called ACTX-6, has been shown to cause cell death in isolated cancer cells.1

Its venom is widely used in research. In mice, it attacks the kidneys and the mice die.1

It is one of the few pit vipers that lays eggs. It can keep eggs inside during early incubation, which shortens the time they need to develop after being laid.1

The venom has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries to make antivenin for treating snakebites.1

For the Paiwan people of Taiwan, the viper is the parent of their hero Aljis, and the viper symbol is used on their homes to show power.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: A person bitten by a hundred-pace viper can only walk 100 steps before dying.
