Wagler's pit viper has adapted to the rainforest by evolving a heat-sensing pit organ on its head to help detect prey in low light conditions. Its cryptic coloration blends with the forest floor, providing camouflage from predators. These snakes are also arboreal, spending much of their time in the trees to access prey and avoid ground-based threats.
