Answer:

HEY MATE HERE IS THE ANSWER

Explanation:

Russell's viper (Daboia russelii) is a species of venomous snake in the family Viperidae,[1] the family which includes the venomous Old World vipers. The species is found in Asia throughout the Indian subcontinent, much of Southeast Asia, southern China and Taiwan.[2] The species is named after Patrick Russell (1726–1805),[3] a Scottish herpetologist who first described many of India's snakes, and the name of the genus is from the Hindi word meaning "that lies hid", or "the lurker".[4] In Odia and Bengali this snake is called chandra-boda and chandroborha respectively since it carries lenticular or more precisely lunar marks all over its body. In Marathi this snake is called ghonas. Apart from being a member of the big four snakes in India, Daboia is also one of the genera responsible for causing the most snakebite incidents and deaths among all venomous snakes on account of many factors, such as their wide distribution, generally aggressive demeanor, and frequent occurrence in highly populated areas.

D. russelii can grow to a maximum length (body + tail) of 166 cm (5.5 ft) and averages about 120 cm (4 ft) on mainland Asian populations. Island populations may be slightly smaller on average.[6] It is more slender than most vipers.[8] Ditmars (1937) reported the following dimensions for a "fair-sized adult specimen":[9]

Total length 4 ft., 1 inch 124 cm

Length of tail 7 inches 18 cm

Girth 6 inches 15 cm

Width of head 2 inches 5 cm

Length of head 2 inches 5 cm.
