The farmer surnamed Zhang immediately picked up the branch and beat the snake away, but in less than two minutes, the dog's hind legs began to swell, and after 20 minutes, it began to cough violently, and it was impossible to restrain the flow of saliva, lying on the ground and unable to move, after more than an hour, the dog's whole body was black and whimpering.
It is understood that this snake that bites the dead dog is the white-headed viper, one of the endangered poisonous snakes in China, because the number of white-headed vipers is rare, there is still no anti-venom serum specifically for this snake, and it is the most poisonous of the 27 poisonous snakes in China, known as "one touch to kill". Due to the rarity of this species in the world, there are less than 100 specimens recorded in China, distributed in the hilly mountains of the central and western regions at an altitude of 100 meters to 1600 meters, and its venom is so fierce that there is still no anti-venom specifically for this snake. Experts pointed out that the white-headed viper is recognized as one of the most headache-inducing venomous snakes, known for hunger strikes, and europe and the United States have repeatedly tried to breed artificially, but the results have failed.
