The spider-tailed horned viper (Pseudocerastes Urarachnoides) is the world’s most evolved viper: the unique feature of this amazing animal is the spider-shaped tail that the viper uses to attract and hunt birds and other small animals. Since the first witness of the viper in 2006 by Hamid Bostanchi and Prof. Steven C. Anderson, this strange animal was never captured on camera until 2012 when a team of scientist and filmmakers gathered to show the world the spider–tailed viper in its natural habitat.
