Pseudocerastes persicus (Persian horned viper)

[Louis Jacobsz]

I took some pics for a friend and thought I'd post them for you guys to see. These are one of my favourite snakes and truly awesome to work with.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do... http://www.sareptiles.co.za/forum/images/smilies/002.gif

Wow. Just wow.

[Rogue628]

Holy wow! What a beautiful animal! It has some amazing looking eyes! I could literally stare at them forever....so hypnotic-like :) And I really love sudden change of color on the tip of the tail.

Thank you for sharing. I do love vipers, but I'm really ignorant about most of them. Can you tell us a little about this species?

Beautiful viper!

Have to agree with Alessia, they really do just look mean. Awesome though! Cant wait to come check them out soon.
