Death adder

What is a "death adder"?

A death adder is a highly venomous snake native to Australia. It is known for its short and stocky body, triangular-shaped head, and distinctive color patterns. With its potent neurotoxic venom and ambush hunting style, the death adder is a formidable predator capable of delivering a quick and deadly strike to its prey. Despite its name, the death adder generally avoids confrontation with humans but should be treated with caution and respect in its natural habitat.
