Gifkrag

Byte

Gif kom deur sy giftande of tande uit wanneer dit byt.

Wat doen sy gif as dit byt of steek?

This snake is rear-fanged and mildly venomous. Its venom has the same effects as that of most other boiga species. Because of its small size, it is not considered a threat to people.1

Hoe gevaarlik is dit vir mense?

Gevaar vir mense: LigSoos 'n bysteek of minder. Basies onskadelik vir mense.

This snake rarely bites. There are no known or recorded deaths from its bites.1

Wat doen dit as dit bang is?

It is very nervous and will scuttle away at the slightest disturbance.1

As dit byt

  • Was die byt, hou die persoon kalm en kry mediese hulp. Sommige spesies (soos die boomslang) kan ure later dodelik wees.

Bel altyd eers jou noodnommer (112, 000, 911). Dit is algemene noodhulpraad, nie mediese advies nie. Noodhulp-basiese beginsels

Bly veilig

  • Moet nooit aan 'n wilde dier raak, dit vang of terg nie, selfs nie 'n kleintjie nie, en selfs nie as dit lyk of dit slaap of dood is nie.
  • Gee dit spasie. As jy een raakloop, bly kalm, stap stadig terug en laat dit sy eie pad gaan.
  • As een jou byt: bly kalm, bly stil, bel jou noodnommer (112, 000, 911) of kom vinnig by 'n hospitaal uit. Onthou hoe dit gelyk het, 'n foto help.

Dit is nie uit om jou te kry nie. Dit gebruik sy gif om kos te vang of om homself te beskerm, en kruip baie eerder weg. Meer oor veilig bly
