Selling for a friend:
1.0 Lavent or Blunt-nose viper (Macrovipera lebetina obtusa).
This is a phenomenal not commonly seen old world Vipers available. This species is capable of growing to impressive sizes. Typically staying between 100-150cm (approximately 3-5ft.) this species has reported lengths of specimens reaching 218cm in length, which is slightly over 7ft!
This species has been reported to have extremely potent venom and is capable of delivering large quantities of venom in a bite. The bite of the Levant Viper is quoted as being similar to that of Daboia russelli which is described by Ludwig Trutnau in the book "Venomous Snakes, Snakes in the Terrarium".
Most of the Levant Vipers subspecies are oviparous with exception to Macrovipera lebetina obtusa, which according to Terent'ev and Chernov (1965) is oviparous in some areas and viviparous in others, which is disputed by some authors. Per Ludwigs "Venomous Snakes, Snakes in the Terrarium".
This is a very very cool species of snake.
