  1. death adder

    A death adder is a type of venomous snake native to Australia, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. It belongs to the Elapidae family and is known for its sophisticated hunting technique, potent venom, and characteristic threat display. These snakes are relatively short and thickset, commonly showing a broad, triangular head and thin tail. Its name comes from the extreme potency of its venom, capable of causing death in humans if not treated quickly. There are several species of death adders, all in the genus Acanthophis. While they are extremely dangerous, they are generally not aggressive unless provoked or cornered. Their typical behavior is usually to lie in wait for prey and strike quickly when it comes within range.
