Stan;
Where do you live? Where did you find them? Can you take a digital picture of them?
Bitis, Bothrops, & Lachesis families have the longest fangs in the snake world but none was known to be over 2 inches in length (B. gaboonica sp).
Cheers!
Al

I would also like to know where they were found. I would also like to have some pics of them taken beside of a measuring device. Gaboon vipers have the longest fangs, with a record of near 2" but finding a fang that size brakes all the rules. If you can get the pics please send them to bwviper2k@aol.com and locality on them. Thanks,
Bobby

In addition to the measuring device being in the picture, I might also suggest that colored monofilament line be run thru the fangs to show that they are in fact hollow. If they are not hollow, they are not fangs.
