Vipers

West African Gaboon Vipers are incredible ambush predators with one of the fastest strikes in the animal kingdom (this strike is in slow motion) They also have a complex venom mixture of procoagulants, anticoagulants, haemorrhagins, zinc, metalloproteinase and necrotoxins with an LD50 of 5.0-6.0 mg/kg Music 🎶 “Drug Ballad” by Eminem #bitisrhinoceros #gaboonviper #bitis #viperidae #westafrica #venomous #venomoussnakes #slowmotion #snakefeeding #venom #whatnicefangsyouhave | Antonio Venom
