Wow that is really neat! Thanks for sharing!

I wonder what the temps are like up there during the 3 months they aren't in 'suspended animation' :P I wonder if they ever get RI's up there? :D

Thanks again! :salute:

very very cool!

We have those in Holland, they're awesome snakes!
I actually find more of them when its in the 60s, as opposed to nice 70s or low 80s weather.

ok, so I double clicked on it and went to youtube to watch it.



That is so cool, that was one crazy snake orgy. And even better the males fighting that was very cool footage.:D

I honestly never heard of these snake's. Thanks for sharing, very interesting species!

Pics are cool.

Beautiful snakes, I love those red eyes:snake:

Their preferred habitat in the Netherlands:

Pretty much their maximum size here in the Netherlands:

Don't worry, she wasn't aggressive and I knew what I was doing:

Another, smaller female:

I found six that day which was surprising because it was quite chilly. I took a few more pictures but the camera was dying, so I couldn't photograph every single specimen.

Very Nice Shots! Nothing better than a 6 snake day. Except maybe a 7 snake day. ;)

Yes! Here in Houston I visit a state park but I rarely find more than 2.

Then I go to the Netherlands come summertime and there's viper a plentiful :banana:

Are people in the netherlands all cute? It seems like all the people I know who are from there - both males and females - are loaded with beauty genes...

Oh wait... you were showing the vipers... :D
