Deadly venomous Rhinoceros viper (Bitis nasicornis) from Africa, gabino - hybrid with Gaboon viper
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- Deadly venomous Rhinoceros viper (Bitis nasicornis) is one of the most beautiful snakes in the world. This big viper species lives in forests of Africa. Rhinoceros vipers (also known as river jack) are well camouflaged in the leaf litter, although it seems that their colorful body must be well visible. This species rarely bites people as it usually lives deep in the tropical forest. It is endangered by habitat loss and collecting for pet trade. Rhinoceros viper and Gaboon viper hybridize and produce gabino. Gabino viper is extremely colorful hybrid and we were lucky to see one in the wild. Watch the video to see these amazing wild venomous snakes in their natural habitat!
Whoever your audio person is should win a Grammy. Outstanding.
Thank you very much!!! We are happy that you like this video!
@@LivingZoology I agree with the above. The forest noises are particularly captivating. Would you happen to be able to identify the whooping call (at the beginning) that got louder and louder - a ground dwelling bird?
@@CEROTOPHRYS Thank you!! We are sorry but we are not sure which bird makes that sound.
@@LivingZoology koyal
They're coming with the titan boa
Beautiful but extremely dangerous and it's so amazing how they are like invisible on the ground I'm not surprised if alot of people have stepped on them by accident
These snakes live usually in the forest where not many people go. In fact they are becoming so rare that stepping on one is almost impossible! We walk for days - kilometers in the forest to find one snake.
Great footage as always. I can’t imagine how much work, time and money went into making this. Keep up your wonderful productions!
Thank you so much!!! You are right, huge amount of work, time and money, but we love this work! After 5 years one of us could make UA-cam as main job :)
It's sponsored
Ambush vipers have some of the most beautifully patterened and coloured scales. Natures beautiful tell tale sign of danger and at the same a way to disappear from the gazing eyes of potential enemies and potential dinner alike. As a little boy I always wanted to see this snake moving on the forest floor and not just look at it's stills in a book or magazine, as a man I can say that little boy never left after seeing this snake. You and staff have created a herpetologist's feast for the eyes with these videos. Good job!
Thank you very much for your nice comment! :) Happy to provide footage which makes you feel like you are in the rainforest with the snake.
@@LivingZoology you are welcome, your film editing , possibly from drones to up close is spectacular, I hope your staff and company wins awards for best nature filming. Keep 'em coming👍🏼
@@8kigana That is nice to read :) We are just two people - a couple who studied zoology and wanted to educate people and started to do filming. We are so happy when people enjoy watching our videos and they learn something new about snakes :)
@@LivingZoology you are now my favourite youtube couple!!! Please write a book as well I am sure you both have fantastic stories!
What a beautiful snake (love that green) & great video, too (as always).
Thank you very much! We appreciate your nice comment :)
Absolutely stunning footage ! Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Purely beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for following us.
Never ceases to amaze me the beautiful patterns on the snakes
We agree! So beautiful!
i take those fangs in leg , now i have four patterns like that ! You can try !its work every time
Live in Tucson. Biology background. See many Rattlers. Found a baby coiled. They are more grey. Strattled it and took a picture from above. Later upon viewing the picture it reminded me of the patterns native Americans creative on their baskets and pottery
Rhinoceros viper are rare to see in the forest but am happy that we are going to watch a video about this snake, thanks Living Zoology ♥️♥️.
It was very nice feeling to show this beautiful snake in the beautiful locations :)
@@LivingZoology Thank you, and we'll done.
Thank you for these amazing videos! My children are so interested in reptiles, especially snakes and your method of presentation is fabulous! Keep up the great work educating us on these beautiful creatures!
Thank you very much for watching our videos :) It is great to hear that your children are interested in reptiles and they like our channel! Where are you from? Greetings from the Czech Republic!
Theres our gas supply prices
Bravo, great work and a gorgeous snake! As a snake lover I really love the films on your channel, and have actually learned about some new species. And the absence of a narrator's voice and use of natural jungle sounds makes the experience so much better...just transports me to the forest, as if I'm watching these characters in real. Amazing man, look forward to more. Perhaps some snakes from India/ S-SE Asia?
Thank you very much! It is very nice to read such a positive comment :) We hope that next year we will have the chance to film America or Asia. Hopefully, India will open its borders!
Watching a snake shed makes me itchy, I can only imagine how they feel doing that.
Good point! Who knows how the snake feels before shedding!
Maybe the most beautiful of all vipers! I fell in love with that species back in my childhood days when I first saw a picture in a reptile book...Thanks for the video!
We agree, it is an amazing snake! Thanks for watching!
Essa umteca do mega sneke
Chinese viper most beautiful with jade color
Thanks for this wonderful video. These vipers are so beautiful, especially the gabinos.
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Wow fantastic video. :-)
Thank you very much!
If you say to any artist on this planet take whatever colour you want and paint me the most beautyfull snake you can imagine, Im 100% sure no one would surpass the beauty of the Bitis rhi.
Its just so much over anything in art humans can do.
You are probably right, many people think that this is the most beautiful snake in the world! The natural design is the best!!
It is as beautiful as the Gaboon viper.
Wow que increíble, vine por lo del logo de BTS y me quede asombrada de lo bonita que es 💜💜
Gracias! 🙏
My absolute favorite viper. They are gorgeous in the wild.
You are right, amazing snakes!
Pretty yet not as vibrant and rewarding when in a pseudo habitat setting no matter how natural you think you have made them feel.... There is a certain instinct animals including ourselves have that kicks in when in a naturally exposed free ranged and wild world. Their habitat is what instinctively had them become the amazing animals they are as with any living organism niching to survive. Humans can morphologically alter characteristics but nothing compares to evolution.
@Jack Niehopper fossils and genetics don't lie or show bias... If you have the time and patience to caretake captive wildlife then you madam/sir are exercising scientific work that leads to the knowledge of these great organisms that have existed well beyond our more immediate ancestry.
It has the BTS logo 😱😱😱😱
I loved your video is real real wow now it is the official mascot of ARMY I would like BTS to see your video they would stay as open-mouthed when they see that there is a snake with its BTS logo on its skin 💜
We didn’t know what is BTS until people started to comment under this video about them 😀😀😀
@@LivingZoology And now if you know them, I hope they see your video. BTS is a Korean kpop group and I'm a big fan of them, you should know them, their music is very motivating and raises your self-esteem a lot 💜😌✌️
You guys are absolutely underrated. High quality production. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! We will continue, because we love this job! :)
Beautiful rare snake.... Thanks living Zoology ❤️
Thanks for watching!
If that isn’t one magnificent serpent !! Spectacular footage. Looking fwd to more of these beautiful reptiles
Glad you enjoyed it! These are amazing snakes!
Are the Rhino and Gaboon related?
They seem so similar in some ways, and yet have a couple of differences. The Gaboon has hones as well, but they are tiny compared to the Rhino's horns.
The colors are different, yet some of the makings and patterns are similar.
They are both 'ambush predators,' where they just pick a spot, sit and wait for lunch to come to them.
They both seem to dwell in similar surroundings, 'on the ground, in the undergrowth, and dead leaves.'
They are almost invisible, if you don't know they're there already!
The Gaboon wins the prize for the longest fangs, but I wonder if the Rhino's aren't a very close second?
They both 'march step,' over the ground, which I think is sorta funny to watch. "Your left, right , left!"
Are the venoms of both snakes similar?
What is "Viviparous?"
WOW! A Hybrid of the two!? 'Gabinos...' I didn't know they were mating!? So I guess, the Gaboons find the long horns of the Rhinos to be "pleasing," to look upon! "Love is in the air!"
That Gabino you show here was just beautiful! What colors!
Yes, Gaboon vipers and Rhinoceros vipers are related, these species are not far away from each other in the evolutionary tree. That is why they can still hybridize, they did not evolve so much apart yet. They have similar venoms, similar ecology. Gaboon viper is more generalist, Rhino vipers like only primary forests. Viviparous means giving birth to offspring, not laying eggs, that is oviparous. Thank you for watching!
Love that your video does not have unnecessary noise. It is enjoyable with natural sounds...
Thank you very much!!!
Army's💜💜 did anyone observe there's a bts logo sign on the snake
Thank you for watching!
Never seen a Gabino before, beautiful
It is amazing snake! Thank you!
This is Bitis rhinoc. not a gabino. There is a Gaboon viper, very similar species minus some of the yellow and purple, and just a bit of different design on the back, doesent have the "butterfly" shape but the rectangles.
There are hybrids done in the captivity between Gaboon and Rhino viper, and they are called "Gabino" as you called it.
But this aint a natural species, its a hybridn done in captivity, same as ligers, mules, etc
@@igorsvacic217 @KayDee was really speaking about gabino because it is shown at the end of this video. And gabinos also occur naturally, we never saw one in captivity, but one in rainforest of Africa! :) B. gabonica and B. nasicornis are evolutionary close enough to produce hybrids and they live in sympatry in many places.
@@LivingZoology Yep, I answered before I saw the end of the video and the part where gabino is shown.
I know they occur naturally also, I cant believe you managed to stumble upon one considering how rare those hybrids are. And on top of that I can see it "took" much more from rhino side of family :) which is even more beautyfull since it has so much of that vibrant yellow.
All sspecimens I saw wer4e NOT EVEN CLOSE in beauty to this specimen. There are quite a few on UA-cam videos, but it seems that somehow Gaboon genes are more dominant and it shows more in those hybrids.
Altrough it would be interesting to know which parent was which species, and if that plays a role, if Gaboon was father or mother and vice versa
@@igorsvacic217 You are right, we incredible lucky, we could not believe it. And also as you say, this individual inherited a lot from rhino viper. It would be super interesting to know if and how it differs when male is Gaboon and opposite!
Your channel is horrendously under-appreciated.
Please keep up the good work!
Thank you very much!!! :)
Amazing to see the Gambino viper as well ,,,,, Wonderful species Love emmmmmm A ++++++++++++++
Glad you enjoyed it! The hybrids are called Gabino 🙂
You guys are doing a great job.
Thank you so much for these breathtaking videos.
Watched in amazement at your expertise.
So much effort guys!
Thank you very much! We are very happy that you like our videos :)
I saw this snake last January in Kenya near the Kagamega Rainforest. A wonderful, dangerous animal.
I believe the one you saw was the close relative that looks almost the same (bar the green), the Gaboon viper as rhinoceros vipers are found in West and Central Africa.
@@Michaelkaydee It wasn't a Gaboon viper, they have a white head and no two horns.
Very cool! We want to visit Kakamega next time we come to Kenya :)
There are Rhino vipers in Kakamega forest! :)
@@LivingZoology ah OK... didn't know they come this far east
Quality of the video + sound = hypnotizing
Thank you so much for watching!
Amazing! Especially the hybrid ! 👌🏻
Great documentary , thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! We were so lucky to see gabino, we could not believe it!
This video is sooo therapeutic... The natural sounds in the forest...
Thank you for watching! :)
It has BTS logo omg
What logo?
@@LivingZoology The rhinoceros viper has the logo of the Korean Pop Boy Group BTS
Ever sinc i discovered this channel. I've been so obsessed with snakes m eps this particular species .. and the inland taipan ❤️ as always 101/100 for the clearity of the video . I feel like im shedding a skin with the rhinoceros viper 😍
That is awesome that you like our channel and you started to be obsessed with snakes! Inland taipan - we hope to come to Australia and look for it in the future!
My Godness what a beautiful species, the colors, the camouflage, just amazing.
It Breaks my heart when i think about how long it took to evolve into such a beautiful species(probably millions of years), and how fast humans are destroying it :(
Thanks for the hard work you put into making such wonderfull footage.
Thank you very much for watching! We put all our effort to travel, find and film these beautiful snakes in the wild and we want to educate people about them and their importance in nature. Also it is necessary to show why are they are becoming endangered.
Amazing photography, Nothing around like this when I was growing up, Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Some outstanding work....how long did your crew have to walk and wait for the opportunity to get the shots???????
The snake seems to be tolerant of people for the most part?????
Thank you! We usually walk for a few days in the forest to find one of these snakes. If you move slowly and are gentle with them, you can go quite close to these magnificient creatures 🙂🐍
I love how he let you film him that closely
If the snake does not feel threatened, it allows you to come close :)
Absolutely stunning video footage. The best I have ever seen. 👏👏👏
Thank you very much, we appreciate it! 🙏
Un parallel documentary. Watching this video, fear of viper turns into mind blowing experience. Keep it up, carry on entertaining us. Thanks for recharging our imagination with your artistic videography .
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching and learning more about snakes!
WOW, WOW, WOW, just amazing !!!!!! Thank you for this beautiful look at this Rhino in the wild. You have the only channel that I actually watch. Great work and Cheers from Venomcentral 😁😁👍
Wow, thank you very much! :) We appreciate that a lot! Thanks for writing to us, we checked your channel, you have a nice collection of snakes! :)
Willie,you actually have time to watch Herpetology videos with all them snakes going to the bathroom and mating every few hours??.lol...
Wow..what a trance....i was literally crawling next to this gem deep in the endangered jungles of west africa...and its amazing how much work you put in to find gabino. And you are using a Nikon!! Go team nikon!! keep up the good work. Like you said, alot are being held as pets. Unfortunately
Thank you very much for watching this video and we are happy that we could make you feel like you are in Africa with this snake :)
Though I hate snakes and figure that the only good snake is a dead snake, I still can admire their beauty. All three are beautiful and the Gabino was out right gorgeous.
These are super beautiful snakes! Even though some snakes can be deadly, they are amazing animals which have their role in nature as predators and also prey.
I am much surprised to see this kind of colourful viper snake.it would be dangerous for someone to stepped in as it hidden in the dried leaves. Is it a endangered species?
These colors look like they are very bright, but in fact they are for amazing camouflage in the leaf litter. Yes, Rhinoceros vipers are threatened by habitat loss and collection for pet trade.
Seems to almost crawl across the forest floor like a caterpillar. Stunning.
Yes, they use this style of movement and it is very cool!
Mind blowing extra many fantastic bro
Thank you very much!!!
This gorgeous viper is very calm for not being around human beings
Yes, these snakes are calm unless people threaten them!
Man, that coloration and pattern of the gabino towards the end was absolutely amazing. Glad y'all were able to capture and share it.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
He’s beautiful. This is amazing!
Thank you so much for watching!
Documentary at it's best ! Great at always, can't wait to meet you guys. inform me when you come to India
Thank you very very much!!! :) We hope that India will open its borders next year!
Amazing photography as usual.
Thank you so much 😀
....indeed you are the Best herpetologists....I follow you all the time and you should be rewarded for your work!!!!....keep the good work....greetings grom Piran...
Thank you so much!!! We really appreciate it!
What a beautiful animal on our Earth. I learned of them looking at the bushmeat wiki that lists them as an endangered population. I hope the best for these and all species of Earth.
You are right, these snakes are beautiful and are also becoming endangered. Hopefully, they will survive!
That one removing of skin scene by the snake is just amazing ❤️❤️❤️......even though this very rare snake can't be visible cleary but you guys made a very great footage........just I love your work ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much 😀
@@LivingZoology ❤️👍
Thank you for the awesome footage! Absolutely beautiful snakes! Let's hope humans don't put this species on the extinct list!!
Thank you very much!!! We hope so too!
Soy yo o los dibujos que tiene la serpiente es igual que el loco de BTS
👍
Wow!! Just found out this channel.... wonderful documentaries!!!! Excellent quality , congrats 👏!!
Thank you very much! Happy that you found our channel! Enjoy watching more videos :)
Beautiful creatures. Why would anyone take one of these guys for a pet? Just so stupid. You're basically just killing it.
We also don't understand it.
@@LivingZoology Very sad. It's usually idiots who want to show how "manly" they are or so they can brag they have this venomous creature. Poor snakes just want to be left alone and enjoy their natural habitat.
Awesome video by the way. I just found this page and subscribed immediately after watching this video.
Wow. These people are out there in short sleeves. I don't care how hot would be, I'd be covered in buffalo hide from head to toe to keep from being bitten by something.
You slowly get used to the rainforest :) For us it is a normal environment.
@@LivingZoology Wow.
Another excellent video guys...thanks
Thanks again! Happy to hear that you liked it!
I back and forth a few times and finally see this video..."It is wonderful" that's all I can say...
We appreciate that!!! Many thanks!
Que maravilha de vídeo. Parabéns pelo trabalho, a filmagem na selva é um espetáculo. Tem ter muita coragem, Maceió: Brasil 🇧🇷
Thank you for watching and greetings to Brazil!
Educating at its finest!
Thank you very much!!
When a snake has BTS logo in his body👀
When first comments like this came we had no idea what is BTS.
@@LivingZoology Well, they're the no. 1 boy band in the world now.. It's no big deal if u dont know them as people have their own interest things in life😊
Cringe
@@gwynlordofcinder6316 OK?🤷♀️
Amazing as always!!!
Thank you!!
Wow and I thought Copperheads could blend in. And what gorgeous colors! Reminds me very much of the pattern on the very beautiful Luna Moth. This creature is a work of art.
Thank you so much! Yes, this snake is amazingly beautiful and camouflaged!
wow very meditative and beautiful film !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Many thanks! :)
Thank you for your work documenting these beautiful snakes in the wild. The color variations are amazing.
Glad you like our videos!

That's some nasty looking snake 🐍 😢
It is not nasty, it is beautiful!
@@LivingZoology can you kiss it on it's lips 💋, now that was a joke, don't do it ok 😥, don't do it !
One of the two most Awesome African vipers (the Gabon viper being the other). Brilliant and thanks for posting!
Glad you enjoyed it!!! Thank you!!!
A mãe natureza preparou direitinho tudo perfeitinho, para esses seres magnificos!

Unbelievable. Literally the most beautiful specimens I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mind Blowing Photography.
Thank you very much!!
great video again , about my favorit vipers
Glad you like also this one! Rhino vipers are very cool!
"BEAUTIFUL,,,BEAUTIFUL"
caterpillar walk, makes me smile, musclure bodies...
Loving ❤ these video... THANKS
Glad you like them! Thank you for watching!
Absolutely one of the most beautiful animals ive seen
Been waiting for this docu 🙂🙂
Great! :)
That caterpillar locomotion is strange to see in a snake! Wonderful footage of the habitat. What a surprise to see the Gabino! Absolutely beautiful viper. I have been concerned that the species might breed the Gaboon or Rhino out of existence. I have read somewhere that there is no evidence yet that this will happen anytime soon as the species in large part is a result of the evolution processes. Hopefully all three will thrive! Great job with the camera!!!
Thank you very much for watching and we are glad that you enjoyed! Gabino is just a hybrid of two closely related species and the hybridization occur quite rarely. There is very little data about the fertility of gabinos in the wild.
I have some questions for you. I've seen a lot of Gabinos on UA-cam. Where do they come from? Are these bred specimens that have been made available to them. I don't like what I'm seeing! Thank you for answering any of my questions.
Very interesting show. Too bad that it cannot be watched Due to that nerve wracking background noise.
Thank you. Those sounds are normal in the rainforest, hornbills and tree hyraxes. You hear them almost each day there.
Porque essa serpente se rasteja parecendo uma lagarta?
Sorry, we don't understand the question, we tried to translate it also.
@@LivingZoology why does this snake crawl like a caterpillar?
thanks!
What an incredible video, very hard to appreciate the effort that went into its .. Showing. Sadly, the unchecked spread of human occupation, will not help the Vipers we are so lucky to see.
Thank you very much! Very happy that you enjoyed watching this video :) Yes, we put huge amount of effort, time and money into our job, but we love it! Unfortunately, often we see negative impact of human activities on nature.
ライノセラス、ガボン同様に色彩キレイで現在は人気ありますよね。
財布、バッグに用いたら相当高いですかね？
These snakes should stay in their natural habitat.
Sometimes referred to locally as the River Jack. I was wondering if you'd mention the fact that they sometimes breed with the Gabon Viper and what a stunningly beautiful Gabino you found.
Thank you very much for watching!!!
Rhino's an gaboons an hybrids of the bolth are being bred captivly here USA, so regularly id say collection for the pet trade dnt fit. Maybe 20 year's ago.
Collection for pet trade still exists and in Europe we see many animals brought from Africa.
Don't get tired of watching your videos again Andy again...
Maybe a photography book in paper sometime in the future??
That is so nice to hear!!! We actually plan to create a photographic book about snakes in the future, yes!
imagine being alone in the florest...listening those monkey or birds screams.
terror...absolute terror
In fact, it is very relaxing and nice :) Just being in pure nature.
Hell.this Hybrid is a BEAUTY. Great Videos. Really great Docu!!!👏👏👏
Thank you very much for watching!
Super interesting, I totally love all your videos or short documentaries, keep up doing your great work!🫶🏻 🐍 🫶🏻🙏🏻🙋🏼♀️🇨🇦
Glad you like them! We will keep posting more! 🙂🙏❤️
Ya way to much noise.. mute is advised unless u want a headache. Damn tone it down 80%
You can always put the volume down. Well, rainforest can be a loud place to be, it is full of life.
What fabulous work, guys. Beautiful animals, these are. Are the ‘horns’ on the Gambino stunted in length, compared to its parent Rhinoceros? They appear to be. So beautiful! I really hate the pet trade. These animals are not “pets,” they’re ‘anti pets’ if anything. People think they’re loved by their snakes. Insane. That just gets my dander up. People who say they “love” these animals yet take them from their habitats and keep them in cages and boxes, like so many accessories. Maddening. What a terrible and sad, mean thing to do to something that those kind of people claim they “love.” It’s anything but love. Sorry; I get pretty soapbox about that. Beautiful animals, and I’m glad you found a few. Beautiful filming and use of the natural background, as always. Carry on! 🐍
Thank you so much for watching and thank you for a positive review of our work! Gabino is a hybrid so each gabino has a unique combination of genes from both parental species. We agree that many people just want to have a colorful snake at home, some want to keep venomous snakes because it is thrilling, etc. On the other hand, there are keepers who really have a professional care about their animals and breed them. The important last thing is missing - reintroduction programs which will allow these keepers to do a good thing and bring snakes back to their habitat. It is sad that only export exists and snakes are becoming rare.
sorry guys, but 8 ads in 14 minutes?
that's approx 1 ad every 2 minutes..
thats a reason to unfollow this channel...
i love to support a good channel, but this is ridiculous...😏
We are very sorry about this. In UA-cam Studio you get some ads which are automatically placed and then others, which you can place by yourself. The system tells you that those which are not placed automatically will not be shown to many viewers (not sure what are the factors affecting it except country of the viewer and viewing history, etc.). We very rarely get comments like this and it looks like it is very rare that UA-cam shows all ads. UA-cam is a full-time job for one of us and we are trying to continue doing this job in educating people about reptiles and amphibians. We need to add ads, but of course we don't want to ruin the experience for viewers. Unfortunately, we don't have any sponsors and we have to fund our filming expenses. Bringing new topics, new species and traveling around the world is expensive.
Just a crazy thought, I think this snakes are big caterpillars 😂😂😂 their movements are just awesome. The patterns are so beautiful.
Yes, these big vipers move a little bit like caterpillars!
Kluci, to jsou opravdu krasne zabery!
Velice děkujeme!! 🙂
Your footage is absolutely stunning...the way you film is just so beautiful. Loved that you got to film the gabino one of the most beautiful snakes ever. Your work is just amazing Thank You ❤
Many many thanks to you for watching our videos 🙂we are very happy to read such positive feedback!
@@LivingZoology 🥰
They look like gaboons with the rectangular patches on their backs and the horns above the nose
They certainly look a bit like the Gaboon viper.
I admire your courage for the love of documenting nature.
Thank you very much!
It's great to have no sound, just the sound of the forest. It's an added dimension (as opposed to usual commentary or silly, dramatic music).
Thank you very much, we are happy that our decision to make nature as the main sound maker has positive reactions :)
What is the difference between Rhino and Gaboon viper....and why do they take wild animals' names to their Viper suffixes 🙄🙄🙄
They are different species, they look different, have different colors and prefer slightly different habitats.
Wonderful work. I appreciate every one of your videos as I am an avid snake enthusiast. But tell me, can gabinos mate successfully? Or is it a dead-end like a mule?
Thank you very much! As far as we know breeding of gabinos is very rare.
