Profile
Scientific name:	Deinagkisrodon Acutus
Common name:	Five-step snake, pointy belly snake

Features:	The Hundred-pacer snake is an especially venomous snake with a stout, medium- to large-sized body that can reach lengths of up to 150cm. They have broad, triangular-shaped heads, narrow necks, and snouts that are pointed upwards somewhat. Generally light tawny or tawny in coloring, the Hundred-pacer snake has many triangular-shaped black markings on the sides of its body.
Behavior:	Hundred-pacer snakes inhabit the forest floors of mountains and are often found coiled up amongst leaves. The colored patterns on their body provide good camouflage, and thus they are not easily detected. A highly aggressive reptile, the snake has extremely deadly venom that can kill a person almost instantly. When disturbed, they will lift their head off the ground and go on alert, but will usually not attack unless provoked. Active day and night, the snake's primary diet consists of frogs, toads, lizards, birds, and rats. Females lay their eggs between June and August, usually laying 11 to 35 eggs at a time, and will protect their eggs until they hatch.
Habitat:	Hundred-pacer snakes live at low to middle altitudes in broad-leaved forests, bamboo forests, and valleys that are rarely disturbed.
