Travel the World of Postage Stamps - Snakes and Protected animals of USSR - Saw-scaled Viper (Echis carinatus) - USSR, Soviet Union 1977 - Michel USSR 4680 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

The year 1977 allowed us to travel across the USSR and look where even the most seasoned travelers should be afraid to look into places that are teeming with snakes, into snake nests.

A series of stamps Snakes and Protected animals of USSR, shows us poisonous snakes.

These are not just snakes, if you characterize them on the basis of today, then they are a kind of money miners.

Snake venom is the most valuable product used in pharmaceuticals.

If your joints hurt and you are prescribed a heating cream or ointment, it is most likely that it contains snake venom.

When the poison is removed from the snake, it is not killed, it is released, or kept in terrariums in order that after a short period of time, again take a portion of the poison from it. Like a miner that generates crypto coins, snakes generate poison and money.

On a postage stamp with a face value of 6 kopecks of the USSR, from this series, we see a dangerous snake from the family of vipers Saw-scaled Viper (Echis carinatus).

If, suddenly, on the exam in biology, you are asked about which animals move sideways, most likely you will think of a crab, but, in order for the answer to be more meaningful, think of the Sand Efa snake, or Saw-scaled Viper (Echis carinatus).

Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
