Illustration of an Asp Viper (Vipera aspis) on a clean white background. This venomous reptile from the Viperidae family inhabits sunny, rocky hillsides, woodlands, and scrublands across southern Europe, particularly France, Italy, and Switzerland, favoring warm, dry environments with dense vegetation. Despite its venom, it is shy and avoids humans, playing a crucial role in rodent control. Historically, its name was associated with the Egyptian cobra in ancient Egyptian lore and Cleopatra's legend
