Wildlife Damage Management Snakes Problem Snakes found in proximity to human residences may cause concern in some individuals. Description of Damage Snakes cause no property damage, but seeing a snake or its shed skin may frighten some people. Description of Animals Snakes range in size from a few inches to more than 8 feet. Several poisonous snakes live in this region. Copperheads ( Agkistrodon contortrix ) have the widest distribution; rattlesnakes ( Crotalus spp.) are found in most states but are not as common as copperheads. Cottonmouths ( Agkistrodon piscivorus ) may be common in some areas, while coral snakes ( Micrurus fulvius ) have the most restricted distributions. For information on snake identification, consult Martof et al. (1980) or Conant (1975). (See reference list on page 3.) The pit vipers- - which include copperheads, cottonmouths and rattle- snakes- - are characterized by a pit between and slightly below the eye and nostril; long movable fangs; a vertically elliptical pupil; undivided scales on the underside of the tail; and a triangular head.

Home famous gardens food recipes Food and medicine ... Blogs VIPER SNAKES Vipers are a venomous species found in central and South America . Small and arboreal, these snakes are characterized by their wide array of color variations, as well as the superscalar scales over the eyes. This is a relatively small species that rarely exceed 75 cm in length, with females being larger than males. They have a wide, triangular-shaped head and eyes with vertical pupils. Like all pit vipers, have large, hypodermic needle like fangs in the upper jaw that fold back when not in use, and have heat sensitive organs, or pits, located on either side of the head between the eye and nostril. It’s most distinguishing feature, and origin of its common name, is the set of modified scales over the eyes that look much like eyelashes. The eyelashes are thought to aid in camouflage, breaking up the snake's outline among the foliage it usually hides in. Vipers occurs in a wide range of colors, including red, yellow, brown, green, even pink, as well as various combinations thereof. They often have black or brown speckling on the base color.

General information:  The eyelash viper is a nocturnal, arboreal animal.  This  means that it does most of its hunting from late evening through early morning, and more than likely in, from, or around trees.  When subduing its prey, the snake grabs it and holds on while it injects a hemotoxic venom.  The snake holds on until the animal is dead and then proceeds to swallow it by "walking" it down the throat by moving one side of its jaw at a time.
