Russell's viper (Daboia russelii), a beautiful but highly venomous species of snake found in Sri Lanka that is responsible for a significant number of snakebite fatalities in the country. An ambush predator that conceals itself amongst vegetation, it launches itself at a very high speed towards the intended target. Thankfully the anti-venom stocked at local government hospitals can be used to treat victims but they need to be taken in immediately. This individual was captured from a human settlement and photographed while being released in Panama.
