Native to Appalachian ecosystems, this venomous pit viper represents a crucial component of regional biodiversity. The illustration demonstrates anatomical precision in rendering scale patterns, pit organ placement, and postural dynamics. Produced on archival-grade paper with premium inks, this print serves both aesthetic and educational purposes, appealing to herpetologists, naturalists, and serious wildlife art collectors seeking scientifically accurate representations.
