Vipera ammodytes giving birth movie

[Mario Schweiger]

A little bit off topic,

but this is very hard to observe in nature.
So here a small movie (~ 5 MB) of a Vipera ammodytes meridionalis (from a locality near Olymp mountain, Greece) giving birth to a baby. Filmed in 2006 in one of my terrariums.

Especially for Ilian, who asked for something like that!

Thank you very much,Mario! The video is great!!! Haven't seen V.ammodytes giving birth before,as I already told you!
What are you doing with the offspring?
