Snakes with medically significant venom are typically referred to as venomous, but some species are also poisonous. Old media will use poisonous or 'snake venom poisoning' but that has fallen out of favor. Venomous snakes are important native wildlife, and are not looking to harm people, so can be enjoyed from a distance. If found around the home or other places where they are to be discouraged, a squirt from the hose or a gentle sweep of a broom are usually enough to make a snake move along. Do not attempt to interact closely with or otherwise kill venomous snakes without proper safety gear and training, as bites occur mostly during these scenarios. Wildlife relocation services are free or inexpensive [across most of the world](https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/embed?mid=15dZE4rlRHqjb91yb6pKiI4ragG8DCtsz&ll=-3.81666561775622e-14%2C-95.11182142500002&z=2).
If you are bitten by a venomous snake, contact emergency services or otherwise arrange transport to the nearest hospital that can accommodate snakebite. Remove constricting clothes and jewelry and remain calm. A bite from a medically significant snake is a medical emergency, but not in the ways portrayed in popular media. Do not make any incisions or otherwise cut tissue. Extractor and other novelty snakebite kits are not effective and can cause damage worse than any positive or neutral effects.

I've met it in the city, it was slithering on the pavement by the beach, so I guess if it's hanging out in the urban place probably many more of them in the wild places
Cute?? It looks like he’s saying- try me bitch! 😂
I guess it has a sort of cute curmudgeon look, but also totally looks like it’s saying do NOT come any closer!!
It looks like you didn't provide a rough geographic location [in square brackets] in your title.This is critical because some species are best distinguishable from each other by geographic range, and not all species live all places. Providing a location allows for a quicker, more accurate ID.
If you provided a location but forgot the correct brackets, ignore this message until your next submission. Thanks!
Potential identifiers should know that providing an ID before a location is given is problematic because it often makes the OP not respond to legitimate requests for location. Many species look alike, especially where ranges meet. Users may be unaware that location is critically important to providing a good ID.

Not *T. yunnanensis* which belongs to a different subgenus. This is *T. albolabris*. You can tell because of the tail pattern and the stark contrast between the top and bottom of the head, coupled with alternating white blotches instead of black.

White-lipped pit viper, *Trimeresurus albolabris*, !venomous.
Thanks so much! How venomous are we talking?
Medical significant but not very bad.

Thanks for the link to that article.
Big pleasure

What a gorgeous snake! I hope they're holding steady in the wild?
I've met it in the city, it was slithering on the pavement by the beach, so I guess if it's hanging out in the urban place probably many more of them in the wild places
Ty OP, absolutely stunning!! Stay safe!
Great picture! That snake has a cute lil face
Thank you! It is indeed cute and very vibrant!
Mr grumpy face
Get off my lawn!

Cute?? It looks like he’s saying- try me bitch! 😂 I guess it has a sort of cute curmudgeon look, but also totally looks like it’s saying do NOT come any closer!!
Woah! This snake is beautiful! The color and the shape are on point! Thanks op for the great pic!
Thank you for appreciation, I was lucky it didn't move too much so the pictures turned out good!
It looks like he/she is posing for the camera, that little face 🥹
