The warning: Now the viper is at its most poisonous
The vipers have woken up after hibernation.
And now that the spring sun has arrived, they are at their most poisonous, says Alinda Dalla-Santa at the advisory company Animal Care Guide to TT.

– They are never keen to bite someone. A snake would rather run than bite. When they bite, it’s because they haven’t had time to get away, she says.
The vipers often stay on rocks and try to avoid cold and shady areas, writes TT.

Hello! That’s right! The armed forces have their biggest exercise, Aurora 23, and in several parts of the country they are visible in different ways now.
Is it a vacuum cleaner or a lawn mower that the police are looking for in Huskvarna? 😂

Tired of seeing Pernilla Wahlberg and her children Bianca Benjamin on many channels every single day, right?
Dinghy
Hi Jolle! Change the channel and scroll on is my advice to you. I imagine that viewing figures show that there is a decent interest in them anyway and that they strike a chord with many.
Regarding spies, how many do we have in Europe, all countries have spies, I think it is foolish to say that you and those countries have so and so many spies, then all countries have them.
Ferko Tan Mercovich
Hi Tan! Don’t understand the criticism. Shouldn’t we report on what it looks like in our area because it exists in all countries? Sounds a bit strange I think.
