This is specifically the West African gaboon viper, Bitis rhinoceros (and is no longer a subspecies of B. gabonica).

Love to "see" one of these in the wild (as opposed to "not see" it and then painfully regret it ;-). Since this is a captive specimen please list the name of the zoo or facility in the habitat space rather than the general habitat of the species. Just a tip, habitat is for your spotting. General information can be found through any reference link you might add on the species. For more information of this nature check out the FAQs http://www.projectnoah.org/faq Thanks!
