Habitat
From Europe to Russia
The common European viper (Vipera berus) [web01] lives
from Central Europe, England, Balkans, Scandinavia Eastern
Europe to Russia to Mongolia and China, including Polar
areas. In Germany, the snake lives in heather areas, in
the central low mountain ranges, in forest areas. In the
Alps, the common European viper lives up to 2500m, from
Central Switzerland to the Alpine region in front of
Vienna. Where the aspic viper lives, the common European
viper does not live [web02].
Vipera Berus lives in D-A-CH, Vipera berus bosniensis
[web03] in southern Europe [web03].
The common European viper (Vipera berus) is up to 90cm
long in Central Europe. The longest are strangely in cold
Scandinavia with around 1m in length, the females always a
little longer than the males, 100 to 200 grams light,
pregnant females up to 300 grams. The head is hardly
discontinued, the snout is round, the venom glands are in
the back of the head and widen the head a little. When
sunbathing, the ribs are spread out to enlarge the surface
for heat absorption [web02].
As a habitat, the common European viper prefers the
climate with big day-night temperature differences and
high humidity, i.e. forest lines, forest edges, bogs,
pagans, moist lowlands, scree fields in the Alps, mountain
meadows [web02], rocky clefts, in the heather, in the
bushes, under shrubs [web03].
Hunting and bite
The common European viper is chasing and sunbathing during
the day, and during summer heat it's also only chasing in
the dawn. She lies in wait and grabs the "visitors"
[web02]. The vipers of common European viper (Vipera
berus) and the Aspic vipers (Vipera aspis) can fold their
venom teeth [web26]. The poisonous bite can be given until
to a distance of half the snake [web03]. The bite weakens
the prey (mice, lizards, frogs, blindworms), the prey dies
alone, and is then eaten as a whole by the common European
viper. The young animals mostly eat frogs and forest
lizards. It is particularly active during sticky weather,
wind is avoided. Disorders and threats are answered with
escaping under stones or to thicket [web02]. Convulsions
are also provoking a flight in hiding [web03]. In a dead
end, defence comes with threatening gestures, hissing and
biting [web02]. People who interfere with the common
European viper bothering when they are in their hiding
places are at risk:
-- hikers: Should always have a strong march [provoking
convulsions so the snakes go away] [web03]
-- forest workers [web02]:
-- berry collectors looking for berries in bushes+brushes
[web02]: Tap the zone first with a stick [web03]
-- mushroom collectors on bushes+brushes [web02, web03]:
Tap the zone first with a stick [web03]
-- climbers who hold in rocky clefts [web03]
For not being bitten, good shoes and thick long trousers
are required [web24].
In the cold frosty winter, it is in brumation in the
winter hiding place from October to April [web02].
The enemies of the common European viper
-- Buzzards, kites, eagles and other large birds, martens,
ermine, polecat (fitch), red fox, wild boar, domestic cats
[web02] that strip through the forests [web24]. Other
snakes also compete in food against the common European
viper as e.g. the ring snake and the dice snake [web02]
-- People kill snakes for joy [web24]
-- Humans cut habitats with highways, encircle habitats
provoking degeneration and they die out [web24]
-- Common European vipers are looking for shelter at
feeding points for big game, where wild boars come and
kill the common European vipers [web24].
The snake venom of the common European
viper (Vipera berus)
The bite of the common European viper: has only small
quantities
-- The poison of the common European viper is very
toxic, two to three times more toxic than e.g. the
poison of the diamondback rattlesnake, but the bite is
very small and therefore not fatal for humans [web02],
but for the prey of up to 1kg it's immediately deadly
[web03], bites against larger prey such as foxes or wild
boars do not kill, since the amount of poison is not
sufficient, but only provoke severe discomfort in the
victims [web24]
--The fatal amount (LD value, lethal dose) with common
European viper is around 6.45 mg per kg, and when vein
or arteries are hit the limit is 0.55mg in the blood. So
people of 75kg have to be bitten by 5 common European
vipers to have a fatal effect. But in danger are
children and the elderly. But defence bites are usually
dry bites to save the snake venom for hunting, because
the common European viper only has a small storage
container from 10 to 18mg of dry weight [web02]
The ingredients of the snake poison of the common
European viper (Vipera berus)
-- Nerve poison [web02] (neurotoxic),
especially in southern Europe at the subspecies Vipera
Berus Bosniensis [web03], paralyses the central nervous
system [web05]
-- Blood poisons [web03] that destroy the
blood [web22]
-- "hemolysin": destroys the red blood
cells [web05]
-- "A proteolytic diastase" damages the
fibrine in the blood and in the muscles [web05]
-- Tissue poisons: proteases (proteins):
destroy tissue [web03,22,29]
-- Cell toxins: "Hemorrhaguine": damages
all body cells ("damages the vascular endothelia"),
provokes the permeability and thus inner bleeding of the
organs and in the gastrointestinal tract as well as in
the skin [web05]
-- Chininogenasis (enzyme) [web29]
-- Protrombine-activating factors [Web29]
-- Hyaluronidases [web29]
-- The "thrombosis" damages the fibrin ferment [web05]
The bite of the common European viper: first symptoms
-- If it was a real snake bite, then comes a violent
pain [web03], local deafness (anesthesia) is possible
[web05]
-- painful swelling is developing [web05] like a wasp
sting [web24]
-- In a real bite, swelling and edema is developing
around the bite zone and a bluish discoloration [web02],
blue-red discoloration [web03], initially red, then
violet [web05]
-- In the case of a bite in the arm, the swelling
(edema) extends to the shoulder, with a bite in the leg,
the swelling widens towards the abdomen [web03]
-- In the case of a bite in the fuselage, swelling and
edema [web03] are also created
-- At the bite point, bleeding occurs in the tissue
[web03]
-- nausea with vomiting, palpitations, pain at
the bite point [web03]
-- congestion of body fluids (stases) and
bleedings [web05]
-- slight bleeding, shortness of breath, seizures
[web24]
Medium-heavy poisoning
-- The wound can develop into necrosis
with tissue disorders [and rottening tissue] [Web05]
-- vomiting, diarrhea, cramp-like pain in the
abdominal area, severe pallor,
low blood pressure, formation of
edema [web03]
-- "Inflammation of the lymph channels with knotting and
redness (lymphangitis)" [Wweb03]
Severe poisoning
In small children and older, weakened people [web03]:
-- strong swelling, circulatory shock, trouble of
consciousness up to unconsciousness, possibly coma
[web03]
-- "Without treatment, the edema can lead
to the death of nerve and muscle tissue." [web03]
-- The proteins can cause an allergic shock,
be sure to have medical treatment immediately, because
the consequences can be fatal [web03]
-- breathing troubles [web02, web25]
-- heart troubles [web02]
-- paralysis [web02]
-- blood is broken [web02], hemorrhagic
effect, blood-thinning effect [lack of blood
clotting] [web03]
-- Change of blood pigment [blood becomes
almost black] [Web05]
-- Hemolysis [dissolution (elimination)
of the red blood cells] [Web05]
-- Lymphangitis becomes painful lymphadenitis
(swelling of the lymph nodes [web07]) [web05]
-- Strong edema cause compartment syndrome
in forearms or in lower legs to the death up to limbs
and amputations [web03]: If the swelling
is not limited to the skin, it also expands on muscles.
Swelling in muscle areas causes a blockade of the tissue
blood flow, a deficiency supply with oxygen, and thus
nerve disorders, tissue damage and organ damage are
caused [web04]. Also nerves are narrowed, with severe
pain, muscle weakness, trouble of sensations, possibly
the pulse is missing in that zone. Measures against
swelling take place, in extreme cases, if nothing helps,
surgery, but they are not harmless due to blood damage
(reduced blood clotting) [web03]. Since the tissue dies
and when there is no treatment, finally amputation
may come [or organ failure] [web03].
In extreme cases, the victim ends up in the intensive
care unit, e.g. on Hiddensee Island (Germany) - or in
2004 an 81 year old woman died on Rügen Island (Germany)
after the bite of a common European viper [web02].
Another version claims that the woman was 82 years old
and had already died 15 minutes after the bite, not by
the snake poison, but by a heart attack by the horror
being detected by a snake [web03].
Examples
A twelve year old girl suffers a bite of a Baskian
viper northern Spain (Iberian cross adder, Portuguese
viper, Seoane's viper - lat.: Vipera seoanei):
On May 31, 2015, a 12 year old girl in Cantabria in
northern Spain was bitten in the middle finger by a
Baskian viper (Seoane's viper) - Vipera Seoanei. This
type of snake occurs in Portugal, Spain and France.
The girl immediately felt severe pain and got dizziness,
circulatory problems, breathing became irregular and she
had to vomit. The family rejected an antidote in Spain
and finally the girl had to be saved by operation in
Germany to prevent amputations [web03].

Commercial remedies against the snake
venom of the common European viper
Pharmaceutical agents with antiserum
-- there are monovalent antiserums [web03]
-- there are polyvalent antiserums [web03]
-- and antiserum is only permitted to be applied by a
medical doctor with experience because of the danger of an
allergic shock [web03]
-- have the arm bound or the leg in a leg brace, NO
pressure bandage, this would only worsen the situation,
also no sucking out, no cooling, because this can increase
the death of tissue, but get professional help as quickly
as possible or bring the person there, where professional
help is expected [web03].
