When threatened with no escape, the rhinoceros viper raises the front of its body in an "S" form in preparation for attack. At the same time, the viper inflates its body up to nearly twice its normal size and puffs viciously to intimidate an intruder. As a last measure, the viper can deliver a toxic, often deadly, bite.
