We found this viper in Greece. What is it?

[GaryPq]

Looks to me like a Vipera ammodytes (aka long-nosed viper, nose horned viper, or sand viper).

[pinkcheekconure]

Looks like Vipera ammodytes! Very cool find!

[JohnnyDoom]

Now, I am a complete layman with minimal experience in this field, but I believe that is a snake.

[sandrelacita]

Whatever it is, it is absolutely stunning!

[andreibaboi]

It is a snob nose viper, they are native to Eastern Europe and one of most venomous vipers in europe.

[mykebillig]

You usually find these guys sunning themselves on the front hood of your car; that's why they're called Vinshield Vipers!

[importdevistator]

I'm honestly not familiar with snakes in Greece so I looked up venomous snakes found in Greece and it looks like a nose horned viper to me.

[vladimiropacic]

it is common snake in former Yugoslavia region as well and we call it Poskok

[maxj]

That would be what we call in these parts a “nope“

[sallysprowl]

A type of asp? What a gorgeous baby though!!!!

[johnloughry]

Marked like a Russell's viper but wrong colors. Never seen one like it. Gorgeous

[jamespilcher]

I could be but I believe this is a viper.

[JamesBond-pyxs]

Vipera Ammodytes, most venomous snake in Europe said to not be aggressive..but then Wikipedia contradicts themselves and says some will bite right away

[robertcrundwell]

I believe it might be a nose-horned viper.

[cathy-]

It is stunningly marked and poison whatever it is.

[barbara]

That's the OH SHIT viper from Northern Greece!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[donclabaugh]

I don't know pick it up and ask him 😉

[rayharsh]

It's what you want to leave alone.

[vickiwalters]

A scary snake that I would not get close to.

[larsonlinda]

Something I don't want to see in my kitchen 🤣
