What is a "viper"?

A viper is a venomous snake known for its venomous bites and characteristic triangular-shaped head. They have long, hinged fangs that they use to inject venom into their prey. Vipers are found in various parts of the world and exhibit a wide range of sizes and colors. They are well-adapted to their environments and can be found in diverse habitats such as forests, deserts, and grasslands. Vipers are ambush predators, relying on their camouflage and ambush techniques to capture their prey. They feed on a variety of small animals, including rodents, birds, and lizards. When threatened, vipers can display defensive behaviors such as hissing, coiling, and striking. Due to their venomous nature, vipers should be approached with caution and avoided in the wild.
