Onun zəhəri nə edir?

İnsanlar üçün nə qədər təhlükəlidir?

The danger from this species is unknown. Bites from the close relative T. wagleri are not known to be fatal, and their effects are usually local. Any venomous snake can cause a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis, which can be fatal, so keep well away from it.1

Its bright green colour, with broken green patterning, helps it blend into the trees, which hides it from predators and prey.1
