The rhinoceros sibilant viper is the best looking of the sibilant vipers, it is about the same size as the baboon sibilant viper, but the color is more colorful and very ornamental, like a camouflaged version of the baboon sibilant viper, usually consisting of black, blue, purple, orange, red, etc. However, the rhinoceros sibilant viper is small in number and lives in a specific area, and there are few incidents of injury to people. There is also the rhinoceros sibilant viper, which is itself a subspecies of the baboon sibilant viper and was only later listed separately, with similar habits, looks, size, and venom type to the baboon sibilant viper, which can only be distinguished by the black "eye shadow" below the eyes, with one black eye shadow below the rhinoceros sibilant viper and two below the baboon sibilant viper.

It also has the longest fangs in the world, the largest being as long as a person's thumb, and can easily bite through any clothing. Because of its fat body size, usually can only hide under the dead leaves to sleep, waiting for prey to come to the door, do not look at its fat, and its attack speed is not slow, as if more like a strong "muscle snake", it can be in 0.25 become to the front part of the body ejected, and then bite the prey until the other died before releasing the mouth. Due to a large amount of detoxification, the toxicity spreads very fast and can kill a mouse in about 10 seconds, thankfully it only lives in the rain forest where people are not.

This is such a toxic, fierce character of the behemoth, surprisingly, will also admit weakness, viper rarely snake-eating species, a serious lack of combat experience, it is because of this that their fighting ability is not strong. The Egyptian cobra is the most common in Africa, with a strong snake-eating nature, even thee and will prey, see the bulging belly sibilant viper immediately rushed up to follow want and to eat as if it knows it can not run fast also not anxious, bite it and wait for it to die slowly. The viper is more goose to home, and the face of the Egyptian cobra is not as big as their own are afraid to die, only want to escape, and do not dare to fight back, because of the slow-moving low-movie ING speed, run can not run each other, and finally can only admit it.

Not only is the Egyptian cobra, even the African forest cobra, black mamba s, bake, and other snake-eating species can easily subdue the bulging belly sibilant viper, as long as the encounter is sure to be eaten by the other side. It also makes many people very surprised, why with such big fangs, so strong body size but so goose? Because this is also the biggest weakness of the viper family, combat experience is too little.
