Puff adders Bitis arietans Highly venomous They say that puff adders are slow and lazy. Tell that to this little neoate that I released into the grass. They are ambush predictor, so that means they will in general sit still and depend on their camouflage to hide but, when the game is up and they decide to move, they can do it pretty fast. Stay safe, respect nature 🙏 | Deep South Reptile Rescue

PUFF ADDER Did you know : A Puff Adders life span can go up to 13 to 16 years! The Puff Adder is a solitary and nocturnal creature, that spends most of their time on the ground, but surprise surprise, they do swim, and can easily climb! Fun fact: A Puff Adder can strike to a distance of about one-third of their body length. Although they may seem intimidating, they are quite frankly Lazy ;) and in our opinion, 'Scaredy-cats'. When sited on our property, *PLEASE DO NOT APPROACH* | Barefoot Addo E

Spot the Puff Adders…. “The Puff Adder is widespread over much of southern Africa and further north into Africa. It is a heavy-bodied snake that relies on its excellent camouflage and is reluctant to move. Much of its life is spent in camouflage mode and recent research has shown that when hiding, the Puff Adder will not hiss or strike when approached, as this would give away its presence. It is an ambush hunter that will coil up into a striking position and await its prey. This can last several

Puff Adders can move in many different ways. When in a hurry to get away they will sidewind, otherwise they will just use the caterpillar movement. Instead of killing them when found in a yard, you can call a snake catcher or sweep it into a bucket if no catchers are available. You should never place your hands or feet near a Puff adder as they can strike 1/40th of a second and don't miss often. | African Reptiles and Venom

Puff adders are such a fascinating species of ambush predator. This snake’s intricate pattern allows it to blend into the savanna leaf litter with ease. Vipers like these are armed with powerful strikes and long fangs (characteristic of species in the genus, Bitis - like their cousins the gaboon viper). . What makes a find like this even more rewarding is that we have this species of snake back at the sanctuary. Our puff adder, Mrs. Puff, is on display in the venomous snake hall. . Our videograp

Puff adders can be particularly aggressive and, when threatened, can strike within 0.25 of a second. The name ‘puff adder’ stems from the snake’s habit of inflating itself and hissing when threatened.

This is a female puff adder warning me to stay away from her. This is why we call these snakes puff adders, because of this huffing and puffing threat display. If you walk in the bush and you hear this sound stand very still and then carefully look around you to see where the snake is. Once you spot it, slowly walk in the opposite direction and just leave the snake alone. The snake has warned you of its presence and by you responding in a correct way, you didn’t get bitten. | African Reptiles an
