A saw-scaled viper!!!

The saw-scaled viper, though small in size, is among the most venomous snakes found in the Chorla Ghats and India. Its cryptic pattern blends with the rusty hues of laterite rocks, making it nearly invisible to the untrained eye. With a notoriously fast strike, it demands extreme caution from anyone traversing its habitat. This snake is a delight to spot!
