I never get sick of these This is the most recent one I saw (obviously a captive, not wild).

Oh, in case anyone saw the Komodo thread, um, I think it's an elapid, right?

I love Bitis.. They are all amazing. If I lived overseas I would specialise in vipers, they are just awe inspiring animals..

Sexy snakes hey.
I'm sure this is one of Sdaji's cryptic tests but aren't elapids fixed fanged? Gaboon vipers are viperids with folding/retracting fangs?
