I might have said it in the snake thread a couple of years ago. Imagine if you could breed snakes like you do dogs and bring out certain characteristics. Like this ugly beast and a coach whip. You are welcome for the night terrors.giddings_ag_06 said:

I kinda wanted to see a gaboon viper when I was deployed in west Africa for ebola, but the only snake I saw was a green mamba. We had a cobra on the loose in my "hotel" but I didn't see it.

It's the only reasonable path.

Every gaboon I've worked with just lays there like a sausage. Hooking their fat butts in and out can be tiring. They don't strike much but when they do it's lightning fast and powerful. They also hiss with a super growly, deep, loud raspy sound. Very creepy. A lot of hobbyists actually free handle gaboons because they are fairly calm. That's a big no to me. Not worth the risk from that snake. Stunning snakes, but you have to respect the venom.
Would not want to get hit by one of those.Badace52 said:
Gaboon vipers have the largest fangs of any venomous snake. They are blend in incredibly well to the West African forest floors where they live. Along with the Rhinoceros viper, their patterning and coloration is among the most extravagant of all viper species while at the same time also serving as some of the world's best camouflage.
I experienced all of those on a regular basis when Fran and Sherm were prowling the sideline at Kyle Field.Quote:
Other symptoms may include uncoordinated movements, defecation, urination, swelling of the tongue and eyelids, convulsions and unconsciousness.

Tannerite. The answer is always tannerite.
