Horned Viper Destroys Gerbil in the Blink of an Eye | Love Nature
The tiny gerbils often forage for seeds and grasses and even the occasional insect at night to avoid the sun. But deadly predators usually roam in the dark. The horned viper detects the vibrations of the approaching prey and ‘taste’ its scent with his forked tongue. After injecting his lethal venom, the viper retreats. Death comes quickly. Prey of this size is usually dead within 90 seconds. The snake will stay out of the way of its sharp claws and teeth, until its victim is helpless. The viper eats the gerbil head first so that its limbs fold neatly against its body and don’t catch in the snake’s throat. He tries to do this as quickly as possible, because with his mouth full, he could be vulnerable to other predators. It might take half an hour to swallow the gerbil, and several days to digest it.
