Witnessed the incredible Peringuey’s Adder in action in the mesmerizing Namib Desert! This stealthy ambush predator knows how to navigate the dunes and strike from below.
Cunningly concealed in the sand, it patiently waits near shrubs, luring unsuspecting lizards into its trap. The intense moment unfolds as the snake launches an underground attack, injecting its prey with hemotoxic venom.
Caught on camera with @lionmountain.media using the powerful Black Magic Ursa 12K and @fujifilm_sa 25-300mm cinema lens. 📸
Though bites from these snakes aren't highly dangerous to humans, prompt treatment is crucial.
