Habe diese kleine Schlange in Nuuksio gefunden. Was für eine Schlange ist das? Ist sie giftig? Eine kurze Google-Suche ergab, dass es sich um eine gewöhnliche europäische Viper handelt, aber keines der Bilder sieht so aus wie dieses hier.

Adder is the english name I think. Venomous, stay away. Recognizable from the sawtooth lining on it’s back.
Be careful to keep especially dogs and small children away from it, it’s venomous. And it’s protected, so you’re not allowed to kill it.
Basically there’s two kinds of snakes in Finland: these assholes, which seem to be everywhere nowadays, and then the other non-venomous kind that’s called grass snake, I think. Both adders and grass snakes can be dark or black, so you might confuse them, but the grass snake has yellow dots on both sides of it’s head. And while grass snakes are not venomous, it hurts if they bite, and if they feel threatened, they might poop at you, and that smells super bad.
Kissy kind. Kissing it will def bring new people to your life- ambulance driver, nurses, doctors
You can see from its head shape and scale pattern that it is a viper (kyy).
Probably a hatchling (is that a correct term baby snake), that would explain color.
