Zer egiten du bere pozoiak?

Its venom is neurotoxic, meaning it attacks the nerves. It blocks signals between nerves and muscles, which causes paralysis. Symptoms can include blurred vision, difficulty speaking, swallowing and walking, and breathing failure. In a well-reported case in the Amazon, the victim reached hospital about 20 minutes after the bite.1

Bites are rare, but the venom can cause paralysis of the cranial nerves and can be fatal. The estimated lethal dose for an adult human is 18–20 mg, which is higher than the 4–7 mg for smaller coral snake species. Because it is a large snake, it can carry a lot of venom, with an average yield of 56 mg and a maximum of 160 mg when milked by scientists.1

Albiste ona: medikuek badute sendagai bat (antipozoia) edo tratamendu bat honetarako.1

Zer egiten du beldurtzen denean?

When threatened, it flattens its body and raises its tail.1

Kosk egiten badu

  • A bite needs hospital care. In a recorded case, the victim needed mechanical ventilation because paralysis of the breathing muscles made it hard to breathe, and was given specific Micrurus antivenom.1
  • Eutsi pertsona geldi eta lasai eta joan ospitalera azkar, koska txikia dirudien arren: sintomak ordu batzuk geroago has daitezke.

Deitu beti lehenik zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911). Lehen sorospenei buruzko orientabide orokorra da hau, ez mediku-aholkua. Lehen sorospenen oinarriak

Egon seguru

  • Ez ukitu, ez harrapatu eta ez zirikatu inoiz animalia basati bat, txikia izan arren, eta lo edo hilda dagoela badirudi ere.
  • Utzi tartea. Bat aurkitzen baduzu, egon lasai, egin atzera poliki eta utzi bere bidetik joaten.
  • Batek kosk egiten badizu: egon lasai, egon geldi, deitu zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911) edo joan ospitalera azkar. Gogoratu nolakoa zen, argazki batek laguntzen du.

Ez dabil zure atzetik. Pozoia janaria harrapatzeko edo bere burua babesteko erabiltzen du, eta askoz nahiago du ezkutatu. Seguru egoteari buruz gehiago
