In a technique called ‘sidewinding’ they expertly navigate shifting terrain such as sand, and will ambush prey with their venomous fangs 🐍 #EarthCapture 📸 by Theo Busschau #HornedViper #Reptiles #Snake #Desert | BBC Earth

Mr Snapfix on Instagram: "This video shows the Sahara sand viper demonstrating its unique survival technique — burying itself in the sand. Found in the hot deserts of North Africa, this snake slowly wiggles its body to sink into the sand, leaving only its eyes exposed. This helps it hide from predators and stay cool under the scorching desert sun. It also uses this trick to ambush prey, striking with lightning speed when an unsuspecting animal passes by.
