Bothrops matogrossensis is a venomous snake from the viper family. It inhabits the central part of South America and hunts small animals using venom.
Bothrops matogrossensis differs from related species by a special pattern on the back and a preference for open spaces with shrubs. It regulates the population of rodents and serves as food for large predators.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
