No, not your ex as you may have thought pfft, an ACTUAL DEADLY snake was spotted by a resident of Jumeirah Park on September 30. Residents shared pictures of the saw-scaled viper coiled up at the park on social media platforms and expressed their concerns on the snake sighting.

After this was reported by the Gulf News, the story had sparked up some alarm within the New Dubai residential communities as residents shared all the other incidents when they had spotted the venomous reptiles lurking around the residential areas in Dubai.

Residents are advised to seek medical attention immediately in the event of a snake bite where they can be given the anti-venom is free of cost

You should visit your nearest hospital within an hour if you’ve been bitten by a snake. The free of cost anti-venom is available to residents at the Rashid Hospital in Dubai, Al Qasimi Hospital in Sharjah and other hospitals as well.

So used to seeing all those snakes out there that the real ones don’t seem as scary anymore

Although the pear-shaped headed viper snakes are considered to be the deadliest snakes in the UAE!

In the event of a sighting, residents are advised to contact the Dubai Municipality right away (800900)

DO NOT attempt to handle the situation on your own.
