An adder is a type of snake belonging to the family Viperidae. It is commonly found in Europe and parts of Asia. Adders are known for their distinctive zigzag pattern along their backs, which helps them blend into their surroundings. They are typically small to medium-sized snakes and are often seen basking in the sun.
Adders are non-aggressive and usually avoid confrontation with humans. They are venomous, but their bites are rarely fatal to healthy adults. Their diet mainly consists of small mammals, birds, and amphibians, which they capture using their quick reflexes and sharp fangs.
