This must be the greatest herp trip ever executed by man. From now on you can sit back and relax.

Well you've done it: the equivalent of a wet dream to any fieldherper.
Congratulations to all of you!!!!!!
Thanks for inspiring the rest of us.

Now who is going to top that by finding two spider-tailed vipers in one trip on the Iraqi side of the border?

Great adventure! The landscapes and animals... like a dream..
Congrats on the Pseudocerastes persicus/fieldi, searching for the obvious one and finding an other one also must be herping with an angel on your shoulder.
Lots of compliments on your photos Matthieu and Laura!

Unlikely. Very unlikely... ;)

As far as I can tell from Google Earth information, it should be possible. The habitat does look less mountaineous and thus less optimal but there are patches with seemingly good habitat. I wouldn't mind going there to try it out ;)
