A puff adder is a venomous snake found in parts of Africa. It is known for its stout body and distinctive pattern, featuring a series of dark blotches on a light background. The puff adder gets its name from its defensive behavior of puffing up its body and hissing loudly when threatened, serving as a warning before it strikes. It is responsible for a significant number of snakebite incidents in its range and is considered one of the most dangerous snakes in Africa. The venom of the puff adder is cytotoxic, causing tissue damage and swelling. It primarily feeds on small mammals, birds, and reptiles. The puff adder is a terrestrial snake that can be found in a variety of habitats, including grasslands, savannas, and forested areas. Due to its camouflaged appearance and the risk it poses, caution should be exercised when encountering the puff adder in the wild.
