The most famous snake in Poland is the European (zigzag) viper - venomous but fortunately not too aggressive. I have never heard about a fatal bite. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vipera_berus |

Of course not, I would have written about it but it could have been close if not for the rescue operation. |

In Poland it is called Aesculapian snake. One was spotted in Warsaw. While municipal guards were trying to pull it out from under a car, one was bitten. Harmlessly, because the snake isn`t venomous. www.tvp.info/38523011/waz-w-centrum-warszawy-ukasil-jednego-ze-straznikow-miejskich en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aesculapian_snake
The Aesculapian snake /ˌɛskjəˈleɪpiən/ (now Zamenis longissimus, previously Elaphe longissima), is a species of nonvenomous snake native to Europe, a member of the Colubrinae subfamily of the family Colubridae. Growing up to 2 metres (6.6 ft) in length, it is among the largest European snakes, similar sized to the four-lined snake (Elaphe quatuorlineata) and the Montpellier snake (Malpolon monspessulanus). The Aesculapian snake has been of cultural and historical significance for its role in ancient Greek, Roman and Illyrian mythology and derived symbolism.
