Certain venomous snakes are a group of reptiles that have the ability to inject venom into their prey. Two of the most common species of this type of snake are the ADDER and the ASP. The ADDER is a five-letter snake found in Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia. It is usually brown or gray in color and has a zigzag pattern along its back. The ASP is a three-letter snake found in North Africa and the Middle East. It is usually black or dark brown in color and has a smooth, glossy body. Both of these snakes are highly venomous and should be avoided.
