One of the most dangerous snakes, because of her aggressiveness and very toxic venom. Most of the lethal incidents with snakes have to be written on her account, at least in africa (in India it is the cobra, but not the king cobra!). Worldwide, about 40.000 people die each year from snake bites. About 10.000 could be victims of this snake, if the numbers are correct.
Taken in a terrarium Scharnstein/Upper Austria, Austria in Winter 2007.

Finally, due to a number of hints from viewers I identified Bruce as an African Cichlid. Thanks to all of You!

Very aggressive, very dangerous and its poison is definitely lethal. Most of the deadly incidents with snakes come from encounters with this snake in Africa (about 5000 - 10000/year)..

Corvid in the zoo. They are so difficult to photograph due to their black feathers!
