Its snake head is a typical triangular snake head. The skin color of the whole body also tells you that this is a highly venomous snake, and its venomousness is very fatal, but its movements and eyes always make people feel that it is innocent. This is the famous but not many famous Shanluo iron-headed snake. The iron head is very famous. Basically, nine out of ten people have heard of it, but not many people know it with the word "shan". After all, Luo Tietou is just a general term. There are many types of soldering iron heads in my country. The most famous of them should be Mangshan Luo Tietou, one of which is more than one million. Of course, the snakes in the Viper family belong to the Viper family are basically highly venomous snakes, and their body shapes are pretty good. They are really a snake that can easily kill people.
Viperaceae snakes are basically all tube teeth, which means that injecting venom basically breaks the surface skin tissue of the human body from the teeth and injects venom into the body of human or prey through their tube teeth. This way of injecting venom basically will not cause any problems when biting.
shan iron-headed snake is widely distributed in Yunnan, but it is not a common venomous snake. Mountain iron-headed snake is actually easy to distinguish. The back of it usually looks hazel-shaped scale patterns, while on both sides of the body it looks purple-brown skin color. In addition, irregular cloud patterns that are different from other snakes in regular color patterns, if you observe carefully, you can also see some black stripes behind the corner of its mouth, and there are V-shaped white or yellow patterns on the neck.
Although it does not have a huge body like Mangshan Luo iron head, it also has its own unique charm, that is, a pair of good eyes and a pattern like clouds. Therefore, when many people face it, although they know that it is a snake of a highly venomous snake, they will still relax their vigilance against it.
There are relatively few records of mountain iron-headed snakes, which may be because the areas where it lives do not overlap very much with humans. Although we can often find it in some mountains and forests or bushes, it prefers to stay in some desert areas, such as mountains and rocky desertification. The main reason is that the colors of these terrains can complement its skin color. With mutual support, it can better hide itself, and in more aspects it preys.
Although the area where the mountain soldering iron head lives does not overlap with the area where human activity is active, it does not mean that they will not appear in the area where human activity is active. Sometimes they will still appear near human houses or cultivated land. After all, food in these places will be richer than deserts. Its personality is still relatively afraid of people, but it does not mean that it will run away after seeing people. Its crawl speed is relatively slow. It may be because it knows that it cannot escape if there is danger. So after seeing people, it will not choose to escape, but stay in place. Of course, it will not attack humans easily, unless you really hurt it or move it, it will attack you. Its food is basically small mammals, such as mice and frogs.
