Snake, Viper, Long-nosed

This viper species has the most toxic venom of any reptile. Oddly enough its striking range is quite short for its size. Long and thin they can exceed six feet in length but they are unable or at least unwilling to strike out much farther than 12-18 inches. They have adapted to be the ultimate ambush predator and many times the victim does not even know they have been bitten until they collapse to the ground while their internal organs shut down.
