Vipers

Vipers are a type of venomous snake found all over the world. They possess a unique method of hunting and defence which involves the injection of venom from their fangs when they bite their prey. This venom contains a complex mix of enzymes, neurotoxins, and other chemicals that can cause both local and systemic effects in the victim. Vipers have been used in medical research to produce antivenoms, and they are also kept as pets by some enthusiasts. In addition, they play an important role in natural ecosystems, controlling populations of small animals, such as rodents, and providing food for predators.
