Bothrops asper taking flight! Fun little fact: These beauties gave us a medication called captopril in their venom. Captopril was the original ACE inhibitor which is now the most commonly prescribed blood pressure medicine in the world and the second most prescribed type of medicine in the world (behind statins). This is why we need research into nature and why it is so important to respect, admire and learn from these incredible creatures. #venom #viper #costarica #snakesoftiktok #venomoussnake
