RE: The Puff Adder: Taking Camouflage to a Whole New Level
That is fascinating about the scent masking! I wonder how long it took for this evolution to occur. And I wonder why is hasn't happened in other pit vipers or adders?
We don't know yet whether or not this occurs in other pit viper species. While it has only been confirmed in the puff adder, biologists speculate this may be common throughout the animal kingdom.
