The pups have been sedated for almost two years – no one knows if there are more now

The warm weather has set the vipers on the move. They thrive in rocky terrain with lots of holes.

The warm spring weather brings out the vipers to bask in the sun.

The viper has been restricted in Finland since the beginning of June 2023. Many people wonder when they see a pigeon whether their numbers have increased as a result.

Locally, the number of villages can vary greatly.

– It is impossible to calculate the number of Kiidi because they stay so much hidden.

Kyy is long -lasting, it lives well for over a decade.

According to Valkonen, Kyy is slow to reproduce. The female only gets chicks every other year. At one time, about ten chicks are born.

The ride stays in the same area throughout their lives, they are very faithful.

They move within a mile of their wintering place within a mile. Population can only be moved elsewhere if their habitat is destroyed, for example, due to a storm.

Clean places are the best deterrent

The snakes thrive in rocky terrain with lots of cavities. The rhizomes of the trees also go to them.

If you do not want the Kyit on your own plot, it is a good idea to keep the yard clean of the piles and other good hiding places. According to Valkonen, it is the best way to keep the strangers at bay.

Valkonen does not believe in other expulsion tools, for example, in the colorful canes for sale.

– Its stick should keep a pretty tough bump to be frightened.

The ride moves after the diet, if there are no rodents on the site, the place is not interested.

Valkonen says that there are also Kyita on the outskirts of the cities with larger forest areas.
